Sam where do i get the user name and passwrd for this app?

There is no username and password for this app. Are you getting asked for a username and password when you try to connect to the internet? If so, what phone do you have and what network are you on?

Hi Sam,

The dart part doesn't seem to be working. I've tried it on 3, O2 and wifi. "Failed to connect"

Also, is there any chance you could add an option to change servers, like in AFT Cabbage?

Thanks, ambrose

I don't think AFT ever had an option to change servers, you might be thinking of cabbage. Adding that option shouldn't be a problem.

The dart part is working for me. you might need to download bart 1.1 from http://cabbagetexter.com/bart

Thanks Sam. I had the older version on my N95 sorry! It's working fine via O2 and wifi. Excellent!

Hmm not sure why its still not working on the e71 on 3. Probably network problems. I'll try it again later.

Thanks again, ambrose.

Works on my N95 on 3. Mine isn't a 3 branded one though which might make a difference

Mine is not 3 branded too .

Ahhhhh . Mis spelled the "to Station". Would it be a good idea to display an error message is the to/from stations do not exist. Brilliant program

You don't need to spell it. Press options and you'll see two options, from station and to station and from there you can pick your station

But you're right, an error would be better

Thanks, duly hosted here.
Feel free to use that if they block your server.
Is it an easy fix to implement an option in settings to choose the parser like in damo's irlcg?

Indeed I do, but there's nothing on it (yet).

Yeah it's simple enough. The option is already in cabbage mobile

Hi sam, great app, just a little thing i noticed was that buses some routes don't work properly e.g.140,151. I presume its because they say they run they run every 10 minutes until a particular time instead of listing every individual time.

Yes that is why. I'll get to that. Thanks for reporting it. There's no way I'm going through every possible bus route myself to make sure they all work

Hiya Sam,

Been using this app for 2 months now and it works a treat. I have 1 little suggestion for an enhancement. In the Menu can there be an option "Get Return Times". This option would display the times for the return journey for the stations entered. Currently one has to manually swap the to and from station and select Get times.

Good work Mate

Hi, sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I had already got annoyed by that myself and added an option to swap the from and to stations but I hadn't uploaded it

It doesn't automatically execute the request though, it just swaps the stations in the text boxes but it's faster than doing it manually.

Btw, you might not have noticed the two options "From station" and "To station". They give you an alphabetical list of every station so you can select one instead of typing it in

If you go to www.cabbagetexter.com/bart you can get the new version (V1.3)

Cheers for this mate!

Hi Sam,

I seem to be having trouble with BART. I'm able to get the next north/south dart ok, but for some reason I'm not able to get the dart timetable. I select to/from etc., and nothing happens. Not working on N95, E71 or blackberry - meteor/3 or wifi.

Thanks, ambrose

It looks like Irish rail have changed their website and the script is getting stuck in an finite loop because it's waiting for some text that never appears. I'll have to take a look at it and get back to you

ct5amr2ig1nfhp · 21-09-2009 2:22pm

Thanks Sam.

BART is just so handy to use on the mobile rather than the dart website!

thomasjad · 21-09-2009 8:20pm

is it updated now? not trying to rush ya just am wondering

mk6705 · 21-09-2009 8:38pm

The commuter rail times won't work at the moment. Buses and DARTS are working fine...I get the message "failed to get data" almost within a second (over wifi) when I try to check.

Sam Vimes · 22-09-2009 11:20am

It should be working again

ct5amr2ig1nfhp · 22-09-2009 1:29pm

Yay! Thanks Sam. Can confirm it's working again.

Ron DMC · 26-09-2009 6:08pm

"Failed to get data" error popping up again today.

Any ideas?

Sam Vimes · 26-09-2009 6:42pm

Nope it's working fine for me, dart, bus and regular trains. Are you still having problems?

long_b · 26-09-2009 8:25pm

Still getting the same message (over WiFi)

Ron DMC · 26-09-2009 11:04pm

It actually does seem to be working over wifi, but not on meteor DATA.

Ron DMC · 27-09-2009 10:57am

Oh wait, it is working on meteor this morning. I must be going mad.

Sam Vimes · 27-09-2009 6:05pm

I don't think you are. Cabbage has been having problems over meteor data too, meteor seems to be randomly losing access to my website. I'm keeping an eye on it
