Now that the server change and this weeks RFS dates are out of the way, I can at last reveal the new data output methods on this site. These scripts allow you to obtain and manipulate far more data from this site than is available through the simple Javascript statistics.
The more adventurous PHP programmers have already been using scripts such as "multi-output" for the past couple of months, but I have now expanded upon this and... shock horror... documented them properly - with examples!
A new exchange lookup interface has also be created. This allows a phone number, postcode or exchange code to be entered, and will return the relevant exchange details. This method and the existing multi-output and multi-search methods are now all accessible using PHP and ASP (with XML).
For fully documented interfaces (complete with PHP, ASP and other examples), please visit the new data output methods section. |
