Some of OCLC's APIs do support JSONP or CORS: for example
QuestionPoint API, the xIdentifier and MapFAST services. However,
other services do not provide this support. This is because for these
services we need to carefully ensure that the application making the
request is actually owned by the ins

Tom,
Wasn't aware of the Reading Radar portal - thanks for sharing that.
I've put an example of the php file (extension changed to .txt), along with
the stylesheet I'm using in the following directory on our webserver:

Nice. It reminds me
Because a few people have asked me about this off list, and because I'm now
struggling with a different related question, I'm bringing it back to the
list for all.
If it's TMI, just delete the email and move on... sorry to jam your inbox.
But I'm determined to make this thing work.

NYTimes could allow JSONP, but then developers would need to embed their API
key in their web pages, which means
I just got this set up on our site, using php to parse the json response.
You should be able to see the result on our staging port at:
http://catalog.ccrls.org:2082
...under the 'Bestsellers' menu in the top nav bar.
We're having to host the actual php pages on a separate web server, since

You can pull data from their API into a server-side process and then pass it
along (filtered or raw) to your browser. But browser security won't let you
access JSON data from a different-origin server.
It's not NYTimes.com's fault; it's the cross-site scripting jerks who made

Wait- what would be the point of their API if I couldn't run anything on a
domain other than nytimes.com?
Thanks everyone for the pointers. I'll get back to it!

then using the ISBN build a link to those titles in the librar
Are you trying to run this inside a webpage served from a domain other than
nytimes.com?
If so, you'd need to use JSONP, which a cursory examination of their API
documentation reveals they do not support. So, you need to use a proxy.
Here's one:
$ cat hardcover.php
http://api.nytimes.com/svc/books
and nothing specific to this case, but i've taken to developing using
.ajax() instead of the .getJSON(), etc. .ajax underlies all the
others, but i've had better luck debugging/diagnosing with the
lower-level function.

Looks like data.results is an array, so you'll have to loop through
it. If you just want the first result, you could get at the
book_details array with data.results[0].book_details.

Anybody out there using the NY times best seller API to do stuff on their

I can't figure out what's wrong with my code here.
Data is returned as "null"; I can't seem to parse the response with jQuery.
Any help would be supercool.
I removed the API key - my code doesn't actually co
