const city = document.getElementById('city').value;
// Make an API request to OpenWeatherMap
fetch(`https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=${city}&appid=${apiKey}&units=metric`)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => {
// Display weather data
const weatherResults = document.getElementById('weather-results');
