Your are trying to launch a URL. Most likely the browser will be invoked to this. The URL you are trying to launch is an API command that results in a JSON blob, not some viewable web page. The browser is telling you that it cannot download this blob of data as is. When you use these kind of API, you don't just open up the URL - for that you could just Google Map. You're supposed to get back the response and parse it and do what you need to do with it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
