hi do you provide yahoo finance api.
where can i find the documentation that a developer can see to use your api. i have been searching for that from so much of time and till now i dint got the clear documentation of full api available

1>see using this link i know i can get quotes

http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=
i came to know about flags then
2>but how to look up the stock symbols. i dont find any api for that.

is there is no any api for that

Basically you have to add 3 libraries:

commons-httpclient-3.1.jar (v4.0+ will not work)
commons-logging-1.1.1.jar
commons-codec-1.4.jar

Hi... want to import contacts from yahoo address book using java. Been able to get wssid and cookie but not able to move further with the following code using java:-


String req ="http://address.yahooapis.com/api/ws/v1/searchContacts?"+
"format=xml&fields=name,email&appid="+appId+"&WSSID="+wssid;
Cookie cookie=new Cookie("Cookie",new String(Base64.encodeBase64(ycookie.getBytes())));

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
GetMethod method = new GetMethod(req);
response.addCookie(cookie);
// Send GET request
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(method);

if (statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
System.err.println("Method failed: " + method.getStatusLine());
out.println("method.getStatusLine()-> "+method.getStatusLine());
}
InputStream rstream = null;

// Get the response body
try {
rstream = method.getResponseBodyAsStream();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
out.println("e "+e);
}

// Process the response from Yahoo! Web Services
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(rstream));
String line;
while((line = br.readLine()) != null){%>
<tr>
<td><%=line%></td>
</tr>
<%}%>
</table>

Executing the above code gives the following error:

method.getStatusLine()-> HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
