how to display 7 days of week weather forecast in c#

Kobinath Ram

I have tried this code many times. below code but getting Error.

this is the API used to get the 7 days week forecast. in below I entered the city "London".so I can get the 7 days forecast report of London.

http://api.apixu.com/v1/forecast.xml?key=5742bec32f4141e08db171907171010&q=london&days=7

when I write the code in c#. instead of London, I passed the one textbox control.because the country which I entered in the textbox.the particular country is 7-day forecast will be displayed at grid view. this is the code I tried

string city = txtcity.Text;

string uri = string.Format("http://api.apixu.com/v1/forecast.xml?key=02d3de968c424e20b5a74149172409 &q=" + city + " &days=7");

I strucked at this point. I don't know how to pass the textbox name within URL.

the final result has to be displayed on the grid view control. I tried the code below. 7 days forecast will have to display on the grid view.

XmlReader xmlFile;

xmlFile = XmlReader.Create(uri);

DataSet ds = new DataSet();

ds.ReadXml(xmlFile);

dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[1];

please, anyone, help me to solve this problem

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append("http://api.apixu.com/v1/forecast.xml?key=5742bec32f4141e08db171907171010&q=");
sb.Append(txtcity.Text);
sb.Append("&days=");
sb.Append("7");
XmlReader xmlFile;
xmlFile = XmlReader.Create(sb.ToString());
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXml(xmlFile);
foreach (DataTable table in ds.Tables)
{
foreach (DataRow row in table.Rows)
{
dataGridView1.DataSource = row.ItemArray;
}
}

hi,

Use this code to form your URI
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
          sb.Append("http://api.apixu.com/v1/forecast.xml?key=5742bec32f4141e08db171907171010&q=");
          sb.Append(txtbox.Text);
          sb.Append("&days=");
          sb.Append("7");
Then call the api and read the xml file . Then bind xml to gridview using technique mentioned here

Hope this helps
