The API docs suck, so for questions like this it's probably going to take you a lot less time to: 1. Run JOSM (or some other mature offline editor that uses the API) 2. Run a network sniffer 3. Try this in JOSM, see what it sends over the wire 4. Do the same in your application (and preferably update the docs). _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
