Does any have a good example (code) of how to take the XML data and present it on the web site? I would like to have the XBOX360 blog on my site and not redirect the end user to 360voice.com. I have no issues in giving the credit on the web site but I would like to format accordingly.
Any help is appreciated. |

@award123: I was talking to BoonKo, because his questions are not specific :)
Here's an VB.NET example
'declare variables
Dim gamerTag as string = "RoelLive"
Dim myWebRequest As WebRequest
Dim myWebResponse As WebResponse
Dim myXml As New XmlDocument
'create webrequest
myWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(String.Concat("http://www.360voice.com/api/games-listfav.asp?tag=", gamerTag))
myWebRequest.Method = "GET"
'get response
myWebResponse = myWebRequest.GetResponse()
'load response into xmlobject
myXml.Load(myWebResponse.GetResponseStream())
After the myXml.Load action checkout myXml.outerxml it will contain the XML from 360voice.com
I'm not using XSL at the moment, so that's not in the example right now.
When using this code, make sure you also use the following imports
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.Net

I apologize about the "laziness" but though I know how to code I don't really....I have tried many times to consume some of this wonderful data for my web site. Can someone shoot me off some example code in .NET or ASP that I can look at and change (code that references these APIs and not Flickr)? The biggest issue I have is around XML formatting and displaying the information. Really confused on how to do this. So a complete code set (does not need to be pretty) would help me out.
Thanks! |

Maybe you should google around a bit, and after that come up with "real questions", nofi btw,...
In code, either ASP, PHP, or .NET you should do a GET httprequest or a GET xmlhttprequest. When you specify the correct 360 Voice API URL it will return the data you requested. After that it's up to you how you work with this data. |

Well, you really just have to understand a development language and then it all starts to make sense. The services are just a standard way of delivering data. People can take that standard format and transform it using a technology called XSLT to produce HTML which browsers can render.
But being able to do all that first starts with knowing a language like .NET, or ASP, PHP, etc.

I've used PHP on my site and had little difficulties applying example scripts since server where my site is on runs still PHP4 and what I understand PHP5 offers far better tools for XML parsing.
Anyways I found a script that I managed to make work on my site with little changes. Mainly it had just little things that I had to change so it would show out nice XHTML 1.1. I also had a problem with encoding, since Viva Piņata didn't show properly but I just fixed that with some gum and glue. :)
Turned out well enough for me: http://www.nvipero.net/index.php?s=4
Now that I found list of available web services, I'll surely add some new things there. :)

That is why I wrote the one for Flickr. I was digging around and never found a good explanation, so I put one together so that any other time I needed to consume XML, I had a good foundation in place.

THANK YOU!! This helps out a ton. I was not sure where to start but this helps. I think the toughtest part will be creating the XSL accordingly. When I have this done I will post back up for others...thanks again!
