Help with Yahoo API

Greetings
Well i am ready to give up - it taking me a lot of time learning how to use Yahoo API.
after with forums help i realized that i need to download all kind of JAXB and JAXME jars.
I finally was able to go without errors - until i got the :

java.net.UnknownHostException: api.search.yahoo.com

My program is simple (java one):

try
{
SearchClient x = new SearchClient("myCode");
WebSearchRequest u = new WebSearchRequest("test word");

WebSearchResults z;
WebSearchResult d;

x.webSearch(u);
d = z.listResults()[0];
System.out.println(d.getTitle());
}
catch (SearchException v)
{
System.out.println(v.toString() );
}
catch (IOException v)
{
System.out.println(v.toString() );
}


So why does it throw this exception ? and how come others use it so quickly ?
I don't remember having such a hard time with Google API.

anyone know ?

Thanx in advance

 

However the java thing cover the XML for me so i do not use to do any analysis
(like google api)

I am not yet familiar with the XML mechanizm in java.

However i'll be happy to see a sample how to work with the Yahoo API XML
*there is an example in their site - but they do not show how to analyze the XML.

Maybe this will be easier

 

I had a problem i was using Yahoo API .
SearchClient client = new SearchClient("javasdktest");


try{
if("image".equals(type)){
ImageSearchRequest searchRequest = new ImageSearchRequest(URLEncoder.encode(word, "UTF-8"));
// 是否显示成人内容
searchRequest.setAdultOk(adultOk);
// 查询记录数
searchRequest.setResults(20);
// 从第 0 条记录开始显示
searchRequest.setStart(BigInteger.valueOf(0));

double startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

System.out.println("haha");
ImageSearchResults results = client.imageSearch(searchRequest); the context colored could not go ,can anyone help me?
Thanx in advance
