DesktopX Object - Weather

Location

from WinCustomize Forums

I want to use this DX weather object in my theme Colony DX Weather

The problem I have is setting the location. In the comments SS GOKU said :-

Go here http://weather.yahoo.com/ and find your city then use the last sets
of letters and numbers as your city code.

I have gone to the site but don't know where to find the letters and numbers for my town.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

The Location parameter can be a Zip code or a Location ID. To find your Location ID, browse or search for your city from the Yahoo! Weather home page. The weather ID is in the URL for the forecast page for that city.

You can also get the location ID by entering your zip code on the home page. For example, if you search for Los Angeles on the Yahoo! Weather home page, the forecast page for that city is http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/USCA0638.html. The Location ID is USCA0638.

I don't know if they have the info you need for UK cities.
