Resolving the item IDs in Ornament slots.

    New to the API here, and the join syntax is looking quite nefarious to a beginner.
    What I'm looking to do is query a character, specifically the items list, and more specifically the ornament slots.
    Then join up the items themselves into the data set, such that there's a set of the slot, item name, ornament slot and ornament.

    I've read the docs I can find on it, but must admit to not quite getting the brain around them at first shot. :) Any clues gratefully accepted. :)

    The trickiest part is determining which node you want. It took me a few minutes of trial and error -- and XMLTree -- to figure out what was needed. This merges data from the item collection into a character query. It pulls in the displayname and leveltouse, which should be a good start:

    You'll need to change the %27 back into a single tick (') mark.

    Marvellous! Thanks for that!
    I'm currently believing that "inject at" causes the joined information to create a new field identifier (adornment_detail) in this case, and populate it with the set of joined information obtained from the item relation (join being effectively a left outer join by default).. Would that be accurate, or barking up the wrong tree?

    Yes you've got it. You could call it shovestuffhere and it would do it.
