Hmmm, I don't know if this is wise. Is the info open or protected, i.e. are you allowed to lift it? I assume that there would be some sort of SOAP/ web service if the data was open.

You can rip data from pretty much any site with cURL. However, you're pretty much at the mercy of that website. If they have a makeover, the logic may change.

I did a weather project a few years back where the page ripped info from the top weather and satellite sites. It was a private cURL project just to see if it was possible. It is, but that doesn't mean you can use the data in any way you want.

Yahoo! has an api that allows you to some use (3 days I think). They have access to a 5 day forecast, but I reckon you'd have to pay for that.

I found this site particularly informative: http://www.wunderground.com/ for maps, moon phases, etc.

Listen chanda, this is not a 'give me your code now' site. We generally help people with their code, not do all the work for them.
