Hi Imoracle. I assume, then, that the data you're requesting is a JSON string? You can specify that you're expecting JSON content by including a parameter, which the following page demonstrates (see JSON Requests section):
http://code.google.com/p/opensocial-resources/wiki/GadgetsMakeRequest This doesn't solve your issue since you should be able to access the JSON string using makeRequest without setting this parameter. Can you link me to your original JSON output (the one that caused makeRequest to fail earlier)? I'll do some testing and verify whether you've helped identify a bug in the makeRequest routine. Thanks. - Jason On Oct 28, 12:05 pm, imoracle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Jason, > > Well as I can see either its a bug in makeRequest or I am trying to do > something which is not allowed: > > I tried changing my output from the requested URL: > > Initially it was this: (the makeRequest failed) > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > "sm":["batch videos <img\n src='\/library\/images\/smileys\/ > i_funny.gif'\/> [eagerly awaiting! shady's secrets <img\n src='\/ > library\/images\/smileys\/i_smile.gif'\/>]","If we cant live our > dreams, whats the point of life?
