It is the first time that I use the osmxapi directely, so maybe I'm 
doing something wrong. But all I get is a header and an opening <osm> 
tag without any content.

I'm using the example from the wiki page:

wget 
'http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/node[amenity=hospital][bbox=-6,50,2,61]' 
-O data.osm

cat data.osm
<?xml version='1.0' standalone='no'?>
<osm version='0.5' generator='osmxapi: OSM Extended API' 
xmlns:osmxapi='http://www.informationfreeway.org/osmxapi/0.5' 
osmxapi:uri='/api/0.5/node%5bamenity=hospital%5d%5bbbox=-6,50,2,61%5d' 
osmxapi:planetDate='200804020604' osmxapi:copyright='2008 OpenStreetMap 
contributors' osmxapi:instance='zappy2'>

That's all I get. I tried different bounding boxes and node tags but had 
no success so far.


Best regards, Matthias
