RSS Feed Question

Hi,
I'm thinking of writing a code to notify me of new posts, etc and I am planning to use RSS as source.
I want to know is there any limitation on how many times we can refresh RSS. Does it block IP if I refresh every 10seconds?
Also, how latest are the RSS feeds? Is there any explicit delay set between what we see on forum website and the RSS feed?
Thanks in advance.

In MS Outlook RSS Feeds, you can use RSS Feed URL and there you get notifications. Meaning that, you can receive new post in Outlook and also desktop alert.
Sorry, I don't have answers for your other questions :(

  • IWeb, URL & RSS Feed Question

    Hi,
    I am trying to submit a video podcast to iTunes. I made the site with iWeb. I published it to a folder since I was placing it another hosting service.
    1. When I publish to a folder iWeb asks for an address to set up the feed. My website is www.mediasupport.net. The address of the podcast page (one with the purple tower) is:
    www.mediasupport.net/podcast/podcast.html. The address of the page with the actual movie on it is:
    http://www.mediasupport.net/Podcast/2F164FF5-5706-41CE-9322-799D016FD259.html.
    2. What address do I use for the URL that iWeb asks for when you publish to a folder?
    3. When I go to iTunes to check to check for a valid feed I always get an error like -" link does not appear to be a valid..."
    The last address I tried was itcp://www.mediasupport.net/Podcast/2F164FF5-5706-41CE-9322-799D016FD259.html
    Thanks for your help,

    Where are you seeing these 'Play' buttons? I don't see any in the associated website, and the feed wouldn't contain them anyway.
    All your episodes appear when subscribing in iTunes. All five episodes in the web page version of the Store page at
    https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/chris-brake-show-podcast/id725989655
    but in the Store itself only the episode of 20 October appears, though the Store claims to be listing four episodes (it would be normal for today's episode not to have appeared yet). This I'm afraid is a bug in the Store which has been intermittently appearing for some time, and there isn't really anything you can do about it. Hopefully it will sort itself out eventually: your feed is OK.

  • I have done what it said in a previous question and exported my IE RSS feeds, but I can't understand how to import them into FireFox ot how to view them once they are imported.

    In a previous question, someone asked hoe to import RSS feeds from IE to FireFox:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/358684?s=rss&as=q
    I have done as it says, but had trouble with the second step which was "installing OPML Support 1.5.2 extension for Firefox, which you can use to import OPML file you just exported from IE". I think I installed the extension, but now what? how does it help me import the feeds? And where do i view RSS feeds in FireFox?

  • In support forum, signed in,where do I link to questions I've asked? Years back, could get RSS feed for question. Still available?

    Where can I link to my questions from my account? Searching for username gives no results. Some years back, you could subscribe to an RSS feed for a question, yours or others. Is that gone, if so, why? How do you save the question, without saving the text of your question in a document, and copying and pasting it into search? FF version 19.0.2.
    Thanks.

    The My Contributions link only appears if you are looking at a page of questions people have posted. It's a filter that doesn't apply to other pages, so I guess it's bit of a secret.

  • RSS News feed question

    Why can't I see any of the small pictures on the RSS News feed? They all have a little question mark in the center of where the picture is supposed to be.

    @egapart. Are you looking at Google news?
    With the feed "Google News" it's partly Google's fault, partly Apple's.
    In the RSS feed, Google provides to the browser something not 100% standard; the link to the image in the Google feed is
       <img src="//nt1.ggpht.com/news/tbn/EVRrcIItcrqKMM/6.jpg">
    The "http:" is missing! Although that link would (by accident) work as is, Safari checks if the link starts with "http:" and if it doesn't, adds (in this case wrongly) "http://news.google.com" in front of it. The resulting links is then
       <img src="http://news.google.com//nt1.ggpht.com/news/tbn/EVRrcIItcrqKMM/6.jpg">
    That link does not exist, and hence the image is not displayed.
    The question: Should Safari change or Google?

  • Question regarding RSS Feeds

    Hi All,
    I have a question to ask the community? In JavaFX 1.2.x and 1.3.x we had the following API libraries:
    import javafx.io.http.HttpRequest;
    import javafx.data.pull.PullParser;
    import javafx.data.xml.QName;However, since the inception of JavaFX 2.x.x we don't seem to have these libraries anymore, have we now lost this functionality
    to pull RSS feeds through JavaFX natively? There does not seem to be any documentation / tutorials on this subject since the
    release of JavaFX 2.x.x that I can find searching on Google? If their is another mechanism on how to now do this I would appreciate
    some guidance or advice on how to approach this topic.
    Kind Regards

    You don't need to use Java EE for this, just copy and paste the code from the tutorial I linked earlier (http://www.vogella.com/articles/RSSFeed/article.html).
    It's only 3 classes which make use of just the stand XML processing APIs which come with the Java SE runtime environment.
    And using it is very simple. The following example displays some RSS feed content in a JavaFX table.
    import javafx.application.Application;
    import javafx.scene.Scene;
    import javafx.scene.control.TableColumn;
    import javafx.scene.control.TableView;
    import javafx.scene.control.cell.PropertyValueFactory;
    import javafx.stage.Stage;
    import de.vogella.rss.model.Feed;
    import de.vogella.rss.model.FeedMessage;
    import de.vogella.rss.read.RSSFeedParser;
    public class FeedViewer extends Application {
      public static void main(String[] args) { launch(args); }
      @Override public void start(Stage stage) {
        RSSFeedParser parser = new RSSFeedParser("http://www.vogella.de/article.rss");
        Feed feed = parser.readFeed();
        TableView<FeedMessage> messageTable = new TableView<>();
        TableColumn<FeedMessage, String> titleColumn = new TableColumn<>("Title");
        titleColumn.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory("title"));
        TableColumn<FeedMessage, String> descriptionColumn = new TableColumn<>("Description");
        descriptionColumn.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory("description"));
        TableColumn<FeedMessage, String> linkColumn = new TableColumn<>("Link");
        linkColumn.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory("link"));
        TableColumn<FeedMessage, String> authorColumn = new TableColumn<>("Author");
        authorColumn.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory("author"));
        messageTable.getColumns().addAll(
          titleColumn,
          descriptionColumn,
          linkColumn,
          authorColumn
        for (TableColumn col: messageTable.getColumns()) {
          col.setPrefWidth(200);
        messageTable.getItems().addAll(feed.getMessages());
        stage.setScene(new Scene(messageTable));

  • RSS Feed for "Your Questions"

    Hi, It would be nice for the "Your Questions" section to have an RSS Feed.  This way I don't have to monitor my personal email for responses and can monitor the RSS Fee in Outlook.  It should be easy to get this RSS Feed?  Right?
    Thanks,

    How did you get my message to appear in google reader?  RSS feed for this particular forum?
    Thanks!

  • RSS of FEED question?

    I am trying to add the "startting pitchers" of a baseball
    team to my website. I see many sites are using this same info on
    their site but I can't figure out how they are doing it. The source
    seems to be the team's homepage. I have an RSS feed already for
    news but I am not sure how people are getting the starting pictures
    headshots and stats for the upcoming games.
    Here is the website that the info comes from:
    www.redsox.com (its the portion on the right with the
    pitchers heads, and stats.
    Here is a site that uses the same info:
    www.bornintoit.com
    Anybody have any ideas?
    Thank you!

    The content (including images) can be "syndicated" using RSS
    web feeds all
    right but not neccessarily so. Content can be syndicated
    using client-side
    JavaScript or other methodologies such as an XML Web Service.

  • RSS Feeds and own domain -- sorry but this is kind of a long question

    I've been reading the very useful advice on RSS feeds and how they work with your own domain name.
    I am trying to update my blog to my hosted site and I can't get it to follow the RSS path so that the subscription link works. (I am getting a file not found error message.)
    I updated and published the site on .mac, where it is fine. <http://web.mac.com/lisajacobs/iWeb/Immigra/Blog/Blog.html>
    Then I published the site again to the same folder I used when I put the site up this morning. Since I only wanted to change the blog pages and not the entire site, I ftp'ed up the Blog folder to my own domain site <http://www.immigra.com/Blog/Blog.html>
    The published web folder on my desktop has in it folders along the lines of Extraordinary_files and Extraordinary.html and so forth for the different pages of the site. However, there is no corresponding Blog.html file.
    I am thinking that this missing file may be the cause of the RSS problem -- but where is it? Why didn't iWeb make it for my folder? (I have an old Blog.html file on my site but it is clearly from the last iteration of the blog, as the latest blog entry is not there.)
    Or is there a different cause of the problem that I am not diagnosing? I am reluctant to ftp the entire site up every time I change the blog for two reasons 1) I made an edit to the html code on the welcome page (so that links would open a different page) and 2) it takes a really long time to upload the whole thing, which makes it a pain to have quick blog updates.\

    However, when I uploaded
    only the blog folder and its contents, it did not
    appear on my site.
    I see the last entry as May 10, so that's the old one right?
    My guess would be that you did not actually upload the new blog folder. Depending on how you have things organized, you may still have your old one there somewhere, and you may have selected it by mistake with your ftp program.
    I would double-check the Blog folder on your drive to make sure it has been updated, and that this is the folder you have tried to upload.
    Does publishing to the folder in itself change the
    entire structure so that the whole site has to be
    FTP'ed up again?
    No.

  • RSS feeds display question

    Is there a way to change the layout of the RSS articles? For example, I would like for it to look like the Sage extension for Firefox, which lays out the info in a newspaper 2 column format.
    Is this possible? If so, how? Thanks!

    Hi-
    I have not seen any 3rd party program designed to reformat the RSS feed display within Safari. Apple does not offer any way to change the format either.

  • Lenovo System Update and Lenovo Support RSS Feed (X60)

    Okay. I got Lenovo System Update (version 5, for Windows 7) and it did not offer me any Critical updates. Only Recommended and Optional ones. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, so I don't want to install Recommended and Optional updates, only the Critical ones if there is any.
    On the other hand I also have the Lenovo Support RSS Feed. But they bring me to dead links. For my X60 the two drivers in my RSS Feed are
    ThinkVantage Access Connections patch for Access Connections Version 5.95 for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-...
    Patch module for Power Manager for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), Vista (32-bit, 64-bit) - ThinkPad -
    Both are totally dead links.
    The tricky part is that there is absolutely no correlation between the two: totally different drivers in the System Update and the RSS Feed.

    Hello both,

  • Why is this RSS Feed not working?

  • How do I get the RSS feeds to work in iWeb'08 when published to FTP server?

    There are so many unresolved questions because I have published to an FTP server (Netfirms). HOWEVER, my next task at hand is to resolve the issue of a non-working RSS feed and download capabilities.
    The published website is www.vibrationalvoyages.com.
    When using Cyberduck to upload to Netfirms, I have to call the file name vibrationalvoyages.com because Netfirms organizes my files under a main folder called www (I also purchased the .org and .net extensions along with the singular spelling of the title, have forwarded those url's to the .com extension, which means I have different website names under Netfirm's main folder www, all pointing to www.vibrationalvoyages.com).
    I have to drop the www. in front of vibrationalvoyages.com when publishing to a folder on my computer so, when Cyberduck uploads the files into the main www folder, they are read correctly and published as www.vibrationalvoyages.com. In Cyberduck, the ftp address to upload is vibrationalvoyage.netfirms.com
    Before uploading, I use iTweak to insert the Statcounter tracking codes. Then, I use Rage to optimize the site to cut down on the weight (lots of photos). Then, finally, I get to upload which takes about an hour and a half.
    SO, HOW DO I GET THE RSS FEEDS TO WORK AS WELL AS THE OPTION TO DOWNLOAD AN MP3 RECORDED MEDITATIONS? I eventually also want to include the download option of podcasts.
    Please help! I am doing the best I can to stay in love with Mac but he is turning out to be a pot load of work and the love affair is wearing a little thin.
    I haven't even asked about why iWeb still calls some pages 'The family picnic" or why it switches the url addresses to the individual pages. Probably because in the early stages, I copied an entry rather than just do a new one... but I'll worry about that later. I want to get this 'fixed' first and then I'll address the issue, following Roddy's advice to another writer about installing a flash player, for easy download of the MP3 meditations and for when I record the lessons as podcasts. Until I get this RSS issue resolved, however, podcast downloads are out of the question!

    Thank you for checking, Tom,
    I'm confused. What do YOU get when you push the feed button? And why is it working on yours and not either of my machines?
    Today, my Mac (w/Safari 4) gets the same error message: Safari can’t open the page Safari can’t open the page “feed:http://vibrationalvoyages/vibrationalvoyages.com/DivineLight_Vibrations_Principles_andApplications/rss.xml”. The error is: “The feed could not be loaded because the content is not in a known feed format.”
    My little ASUS (with a Linux operating system) gets a screen that says "The requested URL was not found". The URL on that page is http://vibrationalvoyages./vibrationalvoyages.com/DivineLight_Vibrations_Principles_andApplications/rss.xml
    On both error messages, the URL I was checking was:
    http://www.vibrationalvoyages.com/DivineLight_Vibrations_Principles_and_Applications/Divine_Light_Vibrations_Principles_ andApplications.html
    The last URL was, of course, the URL generated by iWeb.
    So, my question still is:
    HOW CAN I GET MY FEEDS TO WORK PROPERLY? If the problem is there shouldn't be an http:// after feed: then, how do I get iWeb to set it up properly?
    Any ideas?
