Quotation of the day

Ah. Thanks.
So this module is only for this homepage right?There is a german url: http://www.zitate-online.de/zitatdestages.xml
which i would prefer for showing german quotes. i added this instead of the original url, but nothing happens.
Is it possible to create this module for this homepage?
-
@pauabaer Well that would have been handier if I knew that upfront LOL.
If I have time today I’ll rework it.
-
of course you are right. sorry for that. thought you need some more infos before starting moduling and was waiting for a conversation. but you were faster. :)

It’s okay :) I don’t get upset I think it’s actually kinda funny LOL
-
thats good. thanks for all!
at this page the quotes were updated each day at 02:00 am. is it possible that just the new one is shown for 24h and the mirror gets refreshed these times? can you display the quote with the author like in your first version? -
@pauabaer should update everyday …
-
@cowboysdude would be cool if the module would support multiple apis,
for english http://quotesondesign.com
for german http://www.zitate-online.deand then the api gets selected by the global language defined in the config file with english as fallback for a non supported language
-
@strawberry-3.141 Wellllllllllllllll lol I have them both working in two different modules right now…
Just having a tad bit of an issue with characters showing up in the German version as ? for some reason…
I can get them in one module using the language selection of either EN or DE …
-
@cowboysdude those are probably äöü you might have to check the encoding of the response.
You might want to take a look into the fuel module where i use different apis based on the location/country
-
@strawberry-3.141 Yes they are encoded but not returning in the innerHTML properly and am really not sure how to fix that… I’ve tried a few different things but alas no luck…
-
No matter can’t figure out the german umulates… Sorry.
-
oh no. @strawberry-3-141 can you help here? this quotation feature would be very “magic” :)
-
there is an encoding option for request get requests, you might want to take a look into that
-
@strawberry-3.141 I will look at it after work today, Thanks!
-
@pauabaer working on it ;) It’s working except … the special characters…
-
@cowboysdude you got all my hope :D
-
hey @cowboysdude how does it going with your coding at this feature?
-
@pauabaer It’s getting there. having strawberry take a peek under the hood… I haven’t been able to figure out the characters… he knows how.
BUT the other thing is that here in the US it’s the NFL draft tonight so that’ll take up most my time this evening :)
-
@pauabaer Thanks to a little input from Strawberry and viola! Working… just have a tweak or two and it’ll be online tonight.
