I'm using the JSON API plugin for Wordpress( http://wordpress.org/plugins/json-api/ ) to dynamically load posts into my website. I'm trying to set up a lightbox-style gallery where the images get displayed as soon as the lightbox is opened.
My Goals:
(Preferred) Use a method (like example below) to get the url of the image instead of the id which I get now
or
(Not preferred, but will do) Get the image url using another call (but then I would have to make a seperate call for each post), by using the id that I get from the image
Example: (Here is what I have now):
$.getJSON('/?json=get_recent_posts&post_type=slides-verhuur&custom_fields=image',
{},function(data){console.log(data);
});
The bottom line is that this is just returning the id for the image. (More details below)
The data which is returned contains an array with posts which each have a custom field attribute. However, the "image" custom field (the only one for this specific post type), only contains the value "80" which is the id for the image which is attached to this post.
I've used the advanced custom field plugin to add an image field to this custom post type.
Thanks in advance!

I'm pretty new to Razor Pages, and I'm trying to figure out how to replicate routing I have in my current Angular Page.
I have a base razor page that will be populated with different data depending on which parameter is passed to it. This is easy enough, and I know how to do this. However, my problem is in the routing because I want to be able to pass a readable parameter that is based off of the base URL. For example, I want to be able to do:
https://myURL/Band1
https://myURL/Band2
and have both point to the same page (but not the Index Page), consume the parameter "Band1" or "Band2" to display the associated information.
I understand how to consume the parameter, and how to get data, what I'm not clear on is how to do this routing based on the base URL. I can see how I'd do it if it were https://myURL/b/Band1 since I'd make a "b" page and accept parameters.
But how does one do this without that intervening segment of the URL? I need to be able to do this to not break existing links.
Thanks!
The docs for Razor Pages suggest you can create a page named Index.cshtml, which will act as the default where no page is specified in the URL.
Edit
If you want to preserve the parameterless index page, but have your page take its place when the additional URL part is provided, try the following in your page:
#page "/{bandName}"
I am working on a html page with an input bar. How can I get the form data from this page to another html page with a iframe? Because I need to embed the search result from other site but I want to show on my site new page. I just guess should use iframe. But I don't know how to get data and add in page address field.
You have several options here:
1) If your form uses GET method, then all the text data from the form will be passed to next page (which is set up as an "action" attribute of the form) in URL (like www.example.com/?name=John&lastname=Doe). After that, you can extract data from this URL using code from this StackOverflow question and put it inside HTML element using Javascript as well like it is done here
2) Whatever server language you use, you can get query variables from there and put them to the page before sending it to the client. In case of PHP, check this example. NB: don't forget about security.
3) You can temporarily store text in localStorage API of the browser. Simply set the value before submitting the form and then get it on the next page.
iFrame would be inefficient and not needed here.
I'm creating a VCL Application with Delpi 10.3 and want to support some web functionality by having the user enter the ISBN of a book into a TEdit component and from there passing/sending this value to a search field on this website: https://isbnsearch.org after which the website looks up the ISBN and displays the Author of the book. I want to somehow access the information (i.e Author) presented by the search result and again use it in my application.
This is my GUI, for a better idea of what I want to accomplish:
What code can I use for this? Any other feasible suggestions or approaches are acceptable.
When performing a search on that website, it simply loads a page with a specific URL query string...
https://isbnsearch.org/search?s=suess
The above example is when I search for "suess", so you can easily concatenate a search URL.
You can use any HTTP component, such as TIdHTTP, to load this search page, then use an HTML parser to scrape the page and read what you need. Much, much easier than trying to read through the TWebBrowser.
In the end, you won't actually display the HTML (I mean you can if you want to), but the idea is to read the data and display it in your own format.
On that specific page, start by locating the ul element with id searchresults. Then, each li element contains individual results. Unfortunately, this website uses pagination, and only shows 10 results per page. To do this, call this page again with another parameter &p=2 for the 2nd page, &p=3 for the 3rd page, and so on.
On the other hand, that is the worst way to acquire such information. What you should be doing is using a proper API which gives you machine-friendly data. The service you are referencing doesn't appear to have an option, but here's an example of one which does:
https://openlibrary.org/dev/docs/api/books - this also appears to provide you MUCH more information than the one you're using.
I'm working with Twitter's API to retrieve a list of tweets from a Twitter account.
I'm using this: https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/statuses/user_timeline
I get the JSON response (http://pastebin.com/raw/zqyUuXcG) but in the text field (at the end of it) I also have the url to the tweet itself.
I'd like to avoid that because I want to keep the text clean and put the url in an hyperlink (like on date or on the container div).
I couldn't find a way to avoid url to be included in the text field. Is there a way to do it?
Thanks
Depends on the method you want to use after you obtain a JSON response, but doesn't look like you have direct control over URL placement straight from the API.
You could use grep to either extract the URL or filter it out from the text field.
For example, in R, this chunk of code would remove everything after and including "https":
gsub( "https.*$", "", textfield)
I am trying to simulate the functionality of a form in this website, but don't know exactly what the post URL looks like.
The link to the website is here:
selfservice.mypurdue.purdue.edu/prod/bwckschd.p_disp_dyn_sched >> then click on Spring2013. The code I am trying to replicate is the one that happens when the user clicks Course Search and selects CS from the subject list.
You can look at the HTML file to see the values they use in their POST command. How do I see what the values look like once the button is clicked, as I am trying to replicate this and set the variables to the same values. What I need is a URL to be shown with all of the variables set to their respective values. I understand this can be done with a GET command. Can someone tell me how to extract this URL for me so I can proceed?
I edited the page using chrome inspector and changed the form action to GET - this is the URL that was displayed.
https://selfservice.mypurdue.purdue.edu/prod/bwckschd.p_get_crse_unsec?term_in=201320&sel_subj=dummy&sel_day=dummy&sel_schd=dummy&sel_insm=dummy&sel_camp=dummy&sel_levl=dummy&sel_sess=dummy&sel_instr=dummy&sel_ptrm=dummy&sel_attr=dummy&sel_subj=CS&sel_crse=&sel_title=&sel_schd=%25&sel_from_cred=&sel_to_cred=&sel_camp=%25&sel_ptrm=%25&sel_instr=%25&sel_sess=%25&sel_attr=%25&begin_hh=0&begin_mi=0&begin_ap=a&end_hh=0&end_mi=0&end_ap=a
However, this URL dosen't resolve as the script is obviously expecting POST data.
