Pavel,
The forecast part of the copyright has gone missing.

It's not really a bug but when you change the location name on the widget page it's not updating in the widget itself.
The generated code is correct.

WARNING!

We had to change the location of YoWindow java-script files.
Please update your scripts.
Change swf.yowindow.com to js.yowindow.com in all YoWindow JavaScript tags.
Example:
http://swf.yowindow.com/js/yowidget.js
turns to
http://js.yowindow.com/js/yowidget.js

Sorry.

Hi Pasha,

I loaded down Internet Explorer 9 onto my Windows 7 today. I think I have found a small problem with the Location Chooser.

If you are using Internet Explorer 8, Google Chrome, or FireFox you will see a Location Chooser like the following.
YoWindow Location Chooser IE8.JPG
YoWindow Location Chooser IE8.JPG (38.47 KiB) Viewed 6169 times
The IP Locator displays your Country and your State (if in the USA). Select a Location is displayed. If I want another location in the Country or State that is displayed, I make one selection and I have the Widget of my choice.

With Internet Explorer 9, Select a country is the only thing that is displayed. So if I want a location in the USA, I have to select United States, select the state, and then select the town or city.

Internet Explorer 9 has a maximum of 3 steps versus Internet Explorer 8 having 1 step.

I still like the Location Chooser as long as I am using IE8. Please fix IE9.

Marty
