From my web site I can then link to a dynamically created and formatted data file from Editgrid, which looks just like the json file my web page is expecting. I have set up a file for <a href="http://www.kivafriends.org" TARGET="_blank" rel="nofollow">kivafriends.org</a> people to copy <a href="http://www.editgrid.com/user/kivaexport/Kiva_Loans-no_additional_data" TARGET="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a> a map view (entirely within Editgrid but still using Exhibit 2.0 AJAX stuff) is <a href="http://www.editgrid.com/user/kivaexport/Kiva_Loans-no_additional_data.myloansexhibit.html" TARGET="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.
