Hi guys, I'm trying to make a bus shedule the same way as the free app called Ontime HK With the countdown timer in the menu list. I got some help from Dave. He wrote the following but I dont have a experience to do this. If someone can help me create the data URL for one bus shedule I can edit it, to see how it has been done, and do the rest myself. To return the favour I can buy a few of your apps? This is what needs to be done... Frome Dave OK, I've looked at your data set and it's basic, as expected. I would do this: a) Figure out how to 'read' this data into an array using PHP. This means you'll put this file on your website and create a .php script to open it and read in the data. You'll be best off saving the file as a plain text .csv file instead of a .xls (excel spreadsheet. So, save the file as .csv, upload it to your website, then create .php script to read it. b) Create a menu list screen. Set the Data URL for this menu list screen to the web address of the .php script you created in the previous step. When the menu loads, the phone will make a request to the php script. The php script will output the menu items as they appear in your data file. This means you'll need to look at the docs to see how the menu list screen expects the data to be formated. It's JSON format in a certain way. Your php script will read the .csv data then output the json.

Hi, I think this would be pretty easy to accomplish. If you could put the CSV information online for us, we could access it and try to whip up a script for you. The rest would be easy after that. Mark

Hey guys, I am also trying to make a bus schedule app. I was wondering if you managed to get the app working the way you wanted? Cheers, Farcat
