The parsing, etc. works. Not as elegantly as your example though! This is
getting tucked away for future reference. Thank you.

As the Subject says, retrieving the JSON data is where it fails.

docNode = yajl_stmf_load_tree('home/bmartin/Louie.json': errMsg );
if errMsg = '';

You need a beginning slash:

docNode = yajl_stmf_load_tree('/home/bmartin/Louie.json': errMsg );

If you don't use a beginning slash, the system will add your home
directory to the beginning (which is probably /home/bmartin).

So it's looking in /home/bmartin/home/bmartin/Louie.json in your example.
