/**
* Weather Script for CodeIgniter
*
* @author Kevin Burton [CoDeR]
* @package CodeIgniter 1.5.x
* @subpackage Libraries
* @version 1.1
*
* Thanks to Nick Schaffner from 53x11.com for the script.
* This has been modified and ported to CodeIgniter 1.5.4
*
* REQUIREMENTS
*
* 1. URL and DATABSE must be loaded.
* 2. Set the below paramters
* 3. By requirements of the weather.com API, you can only refresh the weather a minimum of 30 minutes.
* You can set this to more if you want by changing the cache_time value.
* 4. If you do not have the table setup already, the constructor will do it for you automatically.
* 5. You will need to register with weather.com and it will give you a folder of icons you use with
* the system.  This system will output the filename for it.
* 6. ENJOY!
*
* USAGE
*
* <?
* $config['zipcode'] = 'XXXXXXX';
* $config['partner'] = 'XXXXXXX';
* $config['license'] = 'XXXXXXX';
* $this->load->library('weather', $config);
* ?>
*
* Get the array by calling: $this->weather->get_weather();
* To spit out the contents of the array, use: $this->weather->trace_array();
*
* OR
*
* You can access the variables individually instead of through the get_weather() function
* Example: $this->weather->sunr; // Sunrise.
* or $this->weather->icon; // the icon name
*
*
