Thanks again Martin,

Okay, I think I can follow that, but how do I single out the individual days 
when...

<dayf>
    <day d="0" t="Monday" dt="Sep 8">
        <hi>90</hi>
        <low>70</low>
        <part p="d">
            <t>Mostly Sunny</t>
            <ppcp>20</ppcp>
            <hmid>66</hmid>

I'll want the "Monday", <hi>, <low>, <t>, <ppcp> and <hmid> for each day 
#0-6
If you can show me how to get the "Monday" and 1 element within day #0 I'll 
figure the rest.

Your dealing with a learner here, so if you would, better show me an HTML 
example of how to display the data in my webpage.

Thanks again Martin,

Richard in VA.
