This is calculated based on a weighting of different types of weather, so if a day is forecast to be sunny with the possibility of a brief shower, then we will see a sunny or partly cloudy symbol rather than a rain cloud. The maximum temperature is the highest temperature forecast between 0600 and 1800, whereas the minimum temperature is the lowest temperature expected from 1800 on the day in question to 0600 the following day.

Throw a pencil sharpener at it
so that the little shavings get in its eyes.

$search is almost certainly wrong...

You need to replace ") with ";)
that works for me
Edit: Don't take notice of this, it is a facetious response..you went silent, so I hope you aren't testing

isn't the / at the end of $Search
escaping the " ?
( Kamikaze Stoat £4.09, Wed 8 Sep 2004, 21:16, archived)

no,
backslashes escape :)
( sprinkles ITS AN ISLAND, morron, Wed 8 Sep 2004, 21:17, archived)

In Perl, escape is
\, not /
not sure about PHP tho'
(pseudosocrates, Wed 8 Sep 2004, 21:17, archived)

ah, sorry.
reading in php, and I always get slashes mixed up anyway
( Kamikaze Stoat £4.09, Wed 8 Sep 2004, 21:18, archived)

Just practice
calling backslashes "BACKslash" regularly got that fixed for me.
(pseudosocrates, Wed 8 Sep 2004, 21:20, archived)

I can just never remember which one i'm supposed to use.
I can only suggest changing $search to something simpler to make sure the code actually works, then building it back up until something clicks
