it seems to be working…

ColdFusion Add comments

So after a few more hours of coding i’ve added the ability to retrieve blog categories (thanks to RogerB for the XML response method) into my BlogThis! client on my laptop and then submit the entry tagging it to my selected category.

Also, i’ve been helping Jake (who’s post on cf-talk initially set me off on this quest) and he’s found that my code doesn’t work on his particular blogging client, BlogJet. RogerB did warn me that some blogging clients down implement the entire APIs uniformally so these problems are to be expected - all i can say is that Newzcrawler seems to work well. Perhaps now i need to look at different responses based on the client being used….more fun!

    John: Watching the client won’t help you. The problem is that BlogJet still (even after my trying to help the developer on a number of occasions) wants getCategories to return a Movable Type-style response, rather than a real metaWeblog response.
