Hi, I was wondering what the plans are wrt providing a web service to be able to pull quotes from Yahoo Finance. This seems like a very rich area for web...
Hey Mark! This is one that we've received a number of requests for and we'd love to provide. When and if we can make it happen, we'll let everybody know (via...
Hi Jeffrey, Thanks for the quick response. Hope to hear something sooner than later but know how it goes in terms of limited resources. Mark _____ From:...
Hi Yahoo. No response to my previous query so I'll put it another way. I am trying to download cached pages using the cache urls returned by the Yahoo...
(second time I'm posting this. first time seems to have not worked) Occasionally, I'll send a query to the API with a number of site: parameters and one site...
Will Yahoo at sometime offer XSLT processing from it's servers like Amazon does? Currently, except for Maps, the reward for having a successful application is...
Thanks for your question. I am not aware of any plans to do XSLT processing, especially since the nature of our data is very different from Amazon's for the...
Toby, Ok thanks for the link. A possible point of value may be that irregardless of a developer hitting the rate cap, by adding XSLT support you allow the...
Hi, I know exactly what you mean about Internet Explorer cross domain requests. I got it working by allowing DataIslands from differnet domains but it is not a...
Paul, How did your "DataIslands" solve the problem? Somewhere the client-side browser has to access a document that is "domained" at yahoo.com. Currently with...
Hi, This is just a quick email before I read the rest of the reply :). I found if you turn off DataIsland Security you can access Yahoo.Coms web services from...
Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, the Ccached URL lnks are outside the API and part of the normal search process, so I don't have any further...
Paul, Ok, I understand now. You mean turning off cross domain security within the IE security permission dialog box. I personally would be hesitant to do that...
Hi Robert, It was those issues exactly why I had to create a proxy script. :) At least other people have been thinking along the same lines as me :) Kind...
Should there be any problem with using XMLHTTPRequest from an application using embedded IE? I'm aware of the cross-domain restrictions, but was under the...
Hello, Thanks for providing the Yahoo Search API. Very cool! I've encountered a couple fairly specific bugs. It would be very helpful if they were cleared up. ...
I've noticed that, when doing straight up web searches, I get a different set of results from the API (even the first results often differs) than I do when I...
Thanks for passing these along. The problematic results are usually the result of some non-UTF-data getting into the result stream, so I've passed these...
Thanks for your question. There will always be some differences; the most common reason is that your webservice search went to one of our facilities while your...
what do you mean by embedded? is it JS? vbs? java applet? Active X Control? plug in? flash? shockwave? if its js, then u can use xmlhttprequest, but be...
As part of a demonstration of the new capabilities in Mindjet MindManager 6, we created a Research Task Pane (similar to Microsoft Office 2003) that searches -...
I have a test "context" that I am using with the Term Extraction API call, here it is: "Two busloads of people left town on Tuesday, but only one person showed...
Thanks for your question. For a context that short and focused I would not expect the query parameter to have any impact. It is more useful when handling a...
Toby, Good to know, I'll know what to do now. Tell the Yahoo engineers to keep up the great work, they're making "mining the Internet" a fun, powerful ...
Yep! I think this would be a great feature! I have lot of friend who use yahoo groups. It's would be great if they would be able to move from our groups to my...
... Thank you for your question. While I would love to talk about upcoming APIs and long-term plans (and there are lots!), it would be inappropriate for me to...
Hi telliott! Thanks for your answer! I understand your position... so... just remember me as an other man who said that "it would be a great feature!" I think...
I am writing an experimental application to search images using the Yahoo! Image Search web service. In order to reduce (or hopefully eliminate) the number of...
