Hi Tony007,

JSONP is still supported, what makes you think it's not?

I thought that's what I read in the API, at any rate my code doesn't work like it did in v2, any ideas on displaying poster images? I see it's call poster_path now and something called backdrop_path where as before there as a actual poster object to work with

Hi Tony007,

Take a look at the configuration method to understand how to build URLs. You'll also want to make sure to append the callback= param or make sure to set dataType to 'jsonp'in jQuery to use JSONP.

You can see a little jQuery test I have here of a working JSONP example: http://dev.travisbell.com/play/tmdb.html

Cheers.

Thanks Travis, I appreciate the help

I'm not seeing how to use the configuration object. I'm also following a tutorial I did a couple of years ago and it's using the $getJSON method.Does that make a difference?

$.getJSON('http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=apiKey&query=' + $('#input').val() + '&callback=?', function(json) { $('#poster').html('<h2>Here is your poster</h2>;<img src=' + json[0].posters[0].image_url + '/>') }

That was how I did it using the old API ( building the path ) how do I build the path with the new API, this is were it's failing for me

Here is a gist of the js https://gist.github.com/anthonybrown/9395761

Hi Tony,

As described in the documentation:

To build an image URL, you will need 3 pieces of data. The base_url, size and file_path. Simply combine them all and you will have a fully qualified URL. Here’s an example URL: http://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w500/8uO0gUM8aNqYLs1OsTBQiXu0fEv.jpg

You'll see that the configuration method returns the base_url and valid sizes for each image type. You can see that information combined with a (for example) poster_path to build a vlid image URL.

I'll look into that, I got it to work though, check it out http://anthonybrown.github.io/movie-poster/?
