Just starting my first app and I wish to update a data table dynamically from my website. Any ideas?
I wonder if I can populate a table by issuing a URL and parsing the response(XML or otherwise)

    Thanks tshirtbooth,

    I am just writing my app now and have just seen that the URL has to be hardcoded - Grrrr - I really need to get from an attribute / table, so I am snookered at the moment.
    I guess I shall have to wait for that one too.

    After a few hours of coding I can see a new challenge - I was intending to spawn instances of actors with different attributes from a table but it looks like I can only spawn prototype actors. I thought about creating as many prototypes (actor_1, actor_2 etc) as I need and re-use them as required but I don't think I can read rows from the table and append the row number to the actor name before I call it.
