RE: [backstage] tfl tube delays feed

No, but I can try and find out for you.   Sorry for the slow reply; backstage is kind of rudderless at the moment, and Ben was the man with the answers. I'll do my best to keep an eye on the list between my other two jobs... it shouldn't be too long before BenMk2 takes over the project.   Kim From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Lowe Sent: 17 June 2006 12:58 To: backstage@lists.bbc.co.uk Subject: [backstage] tfl tube delays feed Hi Any idea when the feed for tfl tube delays will be coming back?

Working properly this is a really useful feature to have (like your rabbit giving you a summary of the weeks best TV every Sunday night!). 2)       Trying to search by genre is about the only obvious function that needs multiple calls. You have to search once to convert the English term to a genre ID, then again to getMembers, then again on each member to get programme times by getInfo. If you want to constrain by time/channel you’ve got to drill down all layers for all members to find out what time the programmes are, or do it in reverse and get the schedule and then look up every programme to check its genre. Could the API  be amended to give a quicker way of doing either of these?   David       David Burden www.chatbots.co.uk
