Cheers Tom. Thanks sounds right but I'm unsure how to implement it. Previously I had it working using 2 array collections which I'd defined within the app. I've now commented out these array collections and have instead retrieved them via the last result method of a http request but it doesn't seem to be working. Here's what I've got so far. You can see where I've commented out my old array collections and replaced them with the new dynamic one's just above. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here:-
