Hope somebody can explain this
If I enter this URL in my browser
http://md5.jsontest.com/?text=example_text
I get the expected response
{
"md5": "fa4c6baa0812e5b5c80ed8885e55a8a6",
"original": "example_text"
}
The following code works as expected on the same URL, returning the above response and Job.Success = True
All well and good so far.
If I repeat the experiment with a differeint URL,
http://www.songsterr.com/a/ra/songs.json?pattern=adel
The response in the browser is a long JSON string, starting
[{"id":398570,"type":"Song","title":"Weinen","artist":{"id":53119,"type":"Artist", ...
However, this PostString call
returns Job.Success = False
What am I doing wrong? Any pointers would be appreciated
