what are you using to let the user input text? Skin.SetString(stringname)?

Yes. Skin.SetString(stringname)... also If I use .replace in lastfm.py as shown in above post it seems to work

oh ok, my fault then. I thaught it was because a space was used in plugin:// path, seems as if i missed something
fixed now.

Phil, I'm trying for a dynamic list of Venue Events. I looked up the venue id for Arrowhead Pond on last.fm and i'm using the content tag below just for testing purposes.
eventually I'l get the venue id from the artist events list but for testing I manually added the ID for Arrowhead Pond

PHP Code:

<content>plugin://script.extendedinfo?info=venueevents&amp;&amp;id=8803641</content> 


When I load my window with the list control using the content tag above, I can see that the json file from last.fm api downloaded into the user addon directory with events for Arrowhead Pond, so I know i'm on the right track and the file is downloading and all

Everything seem to be working as far as the content tag running the script and obtaining the file with events from Arrowhead Pond, but I'm getting the error below when I load the window and the list isn't filling. I looked into the json file itself and looked for "total" attribute and even did a search for the word "total" in the file, but it doesn't exist in the file. Is that the cause of the error maybe? In that it is looking for "total" attribute and is throwing the error because it's not there?.
Am I even on the right track here or is there something i'm not putting in the content tag that I should be?... thanks for any help.

[phil65]

please post the file with the JSON data.

[woodside]

please post the file with the JSON data.

Here is the raw text contents I changed the venue to another venue from Arrowhead Pond to one that had less events so the file would be smaller.

Is it possible to get a list of events from using Skin.SetString(stringname) and entering the name of a venue so a user could search for events by venue name?
Something like using Skin.SetString(venuesearch) to open up a keyboard dialog to enter the name of a venue?
like this...

PHP Code:

<content>plugin://script.extendedinfo?info=venueevents&amp;&amp;venuename=$INFO[Skin.String(venuesearch)]</content> 


or this?

PHP Code:

<onclick>RunScript(script.extendedinfo,info=venueevents,venuename=$INFO[Skin.SetString(venuesearch)])</onclick>

use location= instead of id= as a parameter.

Hope i'm not bugging you too much here... If I enter "The Forum" without quotes as a location I get a list of events from a venue in London with the name "The Forum". however, say we have an arena here in the U.S called "The Forum" aka "The Forum at Inglewood", if I try and use "The Forum at Inglewood" or "The Forum Los Angeles" as location I get an error, it did find a result for "The Forum Los Angeles" cause a json file is getting download with the contents...

{"results": {"opensearch:Query": {"startPage": "1", "#text": "", "role": "request", "searchTerms": "The Forum Los Angeles"}, "@attr": {"for": "The Forum Los Angeles"}, "opensearch:itemsPerPage": "50", "opensearch:totalResults": "1", "venuematches": {"venue": {"website": "http://www.thelaforum.com/", "name": "The Forum", "url": "http://www.last.fm/venue/9191189+The+Forum", "image": [{"#text": "", "size": "small"}, {"#text": "", "size": "medium"}, {"#text": "", "size": "large"}, {"#text": "", "size": "extralarge"}, {"#text": "", "size": "mega"}], "phonenumber": "(310) 330-7300", "location": {"postalcode": "90305", "city": "Inglewood", "geo:point": {"geo:long": "-118.341868", "geo:lat": "33.9583"}, "street": "3900 W Manchester Blvd", "country": "United States"}, "id": "9191189"}}, "opensearchtartIndex": "0"}}

thx for the info. it seems as if the LastFM Api returns a different JSON structure when only one result is found. (dict instead of list with one dict included)

Is there any way to make items without thumbs to be not included in a dynamic list.?
For example... using this content tag to get a list of albums, sometimes there are one or two without thumbs.
If possible I don't want to include them in the list contents if they don't have thumbs. Thanks Phil.

PHP Code:

<content>plugin://script.extendedinfo?info=discography&amp;&amp;artistname=$INFO[Window(Home).Property(Artist)]</content>

In theory yes, but I won´t implement an option for that, sorry.
