Download version 2.0.1 [ Jan. 24, 2011 ]

Download and unzip the archive GoogleWeather_2.0.1.zip.

The downloaded zip archive contains 2 files:

DataUniversal.GoogleWeather.dll - copy this file to your ~/bin folder
GoogleWeather.ascx - upload this file using the Sitefinity CMS built-in functionality (Page edit mode >> Upload a control). We recommend uploading the user control file to a separate group corresponding to the publisher of the control, e.g. "Data Universal", in order to avoid file name conflicts across publishers; choose "no" when prompted whether a code-behind file will be uploaded.

HighlightToday - New in version 2.0. If true, the forecast icon for the current day is highlighted.

The following are available in the "Main" category:

City - City Name.
ProvinceCode - Province (Canada) or State (USA) 2-letter code.
TemperatureUnit - Available values in drop-down list: Celsius, Fahrenheit.
LanguageCode - Display language 2-letter code. Some examples are: en (English), fr (French), es (Spanish), de (German). If the language code is not supported/valid - the forecast is displayed in English.
FrameWidth - Width of the forecast display area, in pixels. The default value allows for 4-day forecast display.
FrameHeight - Height of the forecast display area, in pixels.
CssName - CSS class for the div element that wraps the control content.
ApplyCss - Boolean. If true, the CssName property is used as class attribute for the div element that wraps the control content. If set to true and the CssName property is not provided, the class attribute is not affected - this allows for a default class to be provided in the .ascx file. When set to false the class attribute is removed.
