I like to thanks the following people @tnlogy @dave1707 @Luatee @BriarFox without there help I would not have done this part of my project. Name is JumpMap

I have uploaded it to CC link http://twolivesleft.com/Codea/CC/alpha/index.php?v=1444 so please could you have a look and rip it to bits, any help making it better would be helpful. Also please be aware this is my first attempt at this.
Double tap the hex will display the hex infomation.

Json lib added

Jazmal

Note this part using the http request and I had to get permission from the site owner to use their api.

@Jazmal you’ve forgotten to include a json library I get basically error Worlds 35: json is nil

@Jazmal to grab a CC link long press your version number and select copy. :slight_smile: Now, to check out your project!

@Jazmal I like it, the UI is nice and easy and there’s obviously been a lot of time put in to it!

Thanks @Luatee I started this last November doing bits between work and family, I will call this complete unless people have better ways of doing it and start on the next part. My project is split into 7 sections and this was the first part., 5 more to do and the last one should be the front end to join all parts together.
