Updating exchange rates...

[UncleRonin]

I'm developing a site that makes use of exchange rates for calculations and things like that. Does anybody know how to do this? I'm pretty sure there are a whole bunch of sites that would let you connect and query this information but for the life of me I can't find one. Is there a central site for this or is it just one of those things you've gotta live without...?

Oi yoi yoi! Surely somebody out there has come across this before? It is pretty useful after all.

Yes, you can actually use a public webservice to help you with this. If you know how to use web services you can access actual exchange rates from this site http://www.webservicex.net.

Ahah! Now that's what I'm talking about. Well, not exactly what I'm talking about but definitely helpful.

That's a good link. I'll probably use it in the future for other stuff as well so thanks!

Try this. It was written by Scott Lysle. It will probably give you what you need.
