Hello, I'm using a weather api to get the weather conditions. I used an example from the internet to get te data from the web, this data looks like this in the serial monitor:
client readString test 11/04/13
Send an e in serial monitor to test
connected
client disconnected.
Data from server captured in readString:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

End of readString
this data is put in to a string called "readString", now I want to edit this string with the second function, this is where I get stuck.The function won't get executed on the String. Can it be because it's JSON encoded? Can someone give a hint to a piece of code or the piece itself, so I can use the string to use the second function? This would be very handy! Thanks in advance!
