dataURL not being read in Map Screen.

DataURLs are not being updated and read by the map in my v2.0 app. If I connect to the BT server, it works perfectly, however when I add proven valid JSON dataURLs the map is blank. There may be a problem with the BT server on thos one. Please help

it worked for me when i tried it, you sure you did every step in the control panel? create a map location, enter something in it or whatever, go to screen data url and post the URL that stobe showed you, in the thread we were just in, it wil show the points

I think he is trying to get the mapping to work (as am I) from a web page (ie custom URL). I have a phone directory with addresses and would like to be able to map directly from the directory that we host on our own servers (it's just a web page). The idea is to be able to pick up an address from a web page and map directly to it.

Well. U need to have your addresses in JSON format. That will work if here is a text file that is exactly in the format needed. Otherwise it won't work. But my link works for sure. Just not in my app.

Sevens, Sorry kind of a newb at all this. I will look into the JSON format. If I change it, will it work on Android still?

Map tiles come up. User location is shown. Not good accuracy until zoomed in. No data points from URL.
