RE: Getting currency rates

["Craig Jacobsen" <CJacobsen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Adam,

I have provided you with the code for currencysource.com.
That could be your back up (I would use that as primary, more codes, already sorted)

Problem was only temporary on both sites.

Xurrency.com didn't pay their bill.

CurrencySource.com changed their URL for the rss feed.

HTH,

Craig

Thank you, Scott. It does appear that it is back up. This raises the question what do other places do for a backup to such a foreign currency site? if it does down for whatever reason.
 
Does any web site feed work with that code?

I did some looking around...

xurrency.com's web site is down, but their domain name is not expired.

It appears that the site is hosted by http://www.hostgator.com -- which 
is a company that provides web servers for anyone to use.  You pay them, 
and they provide you a web server that you can use to host your web site.

It appears that hostgator.com has suspended xurrency.com's service. 
Hard to say why -- either xurrency.com is in the progress of moving to a 
new site, or they stopped paying hostgator, or they broke some of 
hostgator's usage rules...  hard to know.

At any rate, this is not a problem with HTTPAPI or your program.
