Another one important question I saw in the forum section how to get weather detail of my city using web services. Here I explained how to get weather details of your city or any other city in the world using web services.
Here in this example project I keep the two drop down list one for country and another one for city. After you select country automatically that country cities are loaded in the second drop down list you can select city and click the submit button that all you will get your selected city weather details.


protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label1.Text = "";
Label2.Text = "";
if ((DropDownList1.SelectedIndex == 0) || (DropDownList2.SelectedIndex == 0))
{
return;
}
string xmlResult = null;
string url;
url = "http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetWeather?CityName=" + DropDownList2.SelectedItem + "&CountryName=" + DropDownList1.SelectedItem + "";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
StreamReader resStream = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
xmlResult = resStream.ReadToEnd();
doc.LoadXml(xmlResult);
try
{
XmlDocument xl = new XmlDocument();
xl.LoadXml(doc.GetElementsByTagName("string").Item(0).InnerText);
XmlNodeList xnList = xl.SelectNodes("CurrentWeather");
foreach (XmlNode xn in xnList)
{
Label1.Text = "Temperature : " + xn["Temperature"].InnerText;
Label2.Text = "Humidity : " + xn["RelativeHumidity"].InnerText;
}
}
catch

Label1.Text = "City Name Not match with our site!";
Label2.Text = "";
