Hi Ben,
Are you doing that on Eventful.com, or using the API? The URLs you
gave were for the website, which expects you to set your location then
search in a second step. (You can see that happening because the URL
redirects to a general Lexington events page.) On the API, it can all
happen at once:
http://api.eventful.com/rest/events/search?app_key=test_key&l=40508&within=10&units=miles&t=This+Weekend&c=sports
http://api.eventful.com/rest/events/search?app_key=test_key&l=40508&within=10&units=miles&t=This+Weekend&c=music
Let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers,
Chris Radcliff

When I submit:

I receive a list of All events for Lexington, Ky. The category
choice doesn't matter, all categories return the same set of 'All'
results.
It seems that when a Zip code is used, category params are not
considered. Is this correct, and why is that the case? How can I
submit a Zip and have category params be used?
Thanks,
Ben
