New sample_gui_v02.zip

sample_gui.zip. now contacts the sample_api via (/customers; /employees) and grabs the result, decodes JSON into a PHP variable, and then loops

The important code there is this: $jsonResponseAllEmployees = http_get("

http://localhost/sample_api/employees", array("timeout"=>1), $info); // Need PCL for this$array = json_decode($jsonResponseAllEmployees);

The function http_get creates a GET request to the URL specified in the first parameter and grabs whatever the response is and stores it into the $jsonResponseAllEmployees

$info variable contains info on the request itself (not the response) in case debugging is necessary
