Since I can't debug pretty much on the server-side, I'd suspect that somehow the data coming from flickr is more clean than from your host.
I also get the following error, indicating most likely a problem parsing the json data: Error: invalid label Source File: http://include.classistatic.com/include/c3js/classifieds/rel1/auto2/a/p10.js?jsoncallback=jsonp1245978837391&_=1245978837487 Line: 2, Column: 2 Source Code: "title": "Recent Uploads tagged cat", How (which api) are you using to generate the json data ? I recommend "demjson" if you're using Python. Hope this helps, Etienne dtrannn wrote: > > Etienne, > > I'm using getJSON because I need to do cross-domain data fetching.
