Hello all,
I hope this is the correct place to ask these question as this thread seems to have gone cold but:

1) Is there a problem with JSON on MMB4W?
I have MMB4W 5.7.03 (the latest?) and I'm using Peters code above "Posted: 02:04am 26 Feb 2022" but with my APIKEY and my place ID.
At the end I've added:

Print "Sunset= ", json$(m%(),"sunset")    

expecting to get the EPOCH number of the sunset time.

It runs (very quickly), I get everything else printed but I only get blank for the sunset time.
Similarly, for most of the other parameters (I've tried almost all, including from the command line etc) I only get blank (and no error messages).
I've also re-keyed Peter's statements and they work.

Has Peter managed to pick the working ones or am I doing something very wrong?

2) Is there a newer version of MMB4W?
3) Is there a newer release of the manual.

4) the TCP command makes it so easy to access the web from a PC - is there any possibility of a similar one on the PicoMite (albeit with some LAN connector?) (the ESP8266 is a poor second in my view).

Many thanks,

Andrew
