RSS Feed with Password Protected Blog

I just got done setting up a password protected blog on my .mac site w/ personal domain. I tested out the RSS Feed in NewsFire, and it worked fine (prompted for username and password), and it also works in the Mail program. I had a friend ask if it would work in her Google Reader, so I tried it out using my Google account, and it doesn't seem to want to work -- says the feed cannot be retrieved. Same thing when I tried to plug it into my Yahoo page. I set up another site with a test blog w/ no password protection, and it worked fine in the Google reader.
So I am assuming that the other readers are just not sophisticated enough to display feed from a password protected page. So my question is whether or not there's anything I can do (or advise them to do) to get around it.
TIA for any perspective.

Hi, JO
I'm having the same problem with password protection on, though I hadn't tested with it off.
I don't have a solution (though I'd like to find one), but I can add more info to the problem: when I tested my website on Internet Explorer in Windows (I run windows on my iMac with Parallels), the search function did work with the password protection on.
I'd really like to know how to get the Search button to work on the Mac with password protection on.

Winzip with password protection

Hi All,
We have a requirement to zip the files with password protection. Please can anyone guide us how to acheive this.
Currently we are planning to develop a custom adapter module by extending PayloadZipBean module to get the password functionality by writing some custom code. Please can anyone guide us from where we can get the code for this module or how we can achieve this.
Please correct me if the above mentioned approach is wrong. Also suggestions are invited to achieve the above mentioned requirement using other methods.
If anyone has already gone through such requirement then please share your experience and the way you achieved this.
Thanks and Regards,
Shiv.

HI Stefan,
As per my understanding, the blog (/people/alessandro.guarneri/blog/2007/02/21/sap-xi-acting-as-a-huge-file-mover) you specified is explaining to reduce the load on the server by zipping the large files. please correct me if i am wrong.
but the requirement is to zip the target file along with password protection. we are able to zip the target file by following steps in your blog (/people/stefan.grube/blog/2007/02/20/working-with-the-payloadzipbean-module-of-the-xi-adapter-framework), but how to password protect this zip file?
Thanks...

How to create PDF from Excel with Password Protection Using Visual Studio & Visual Basic

Could someone provide some VB code sample(s) to create a PDF file with password protection (Security Method - Password Security - Restrict Editing & Printing)?
I create a bunch of reports every week using an Excel 2010 addin that subsequently must be printed to PDF. I then have to manually edit the properties of each document in order to apply the printing restriction.
I'm using Acrobat X.
I've downloaded the SDK but have no idea which dll's to use or where to begin.
Thanks!
Ross

That's surprising & disappointing. I would have thought that this capability would have long since been requested.
Thanks for the heads up.

ADE Not Compatible With Password Protected PDF Files

The version of ADE I downloaded will not work with password protected PDF files. What do I do?
Thanks.

ADE does not (yet) support files that use the Password Security handler, so you will want to use a different PDF viewer, such as Adobe Reader.

An RSS feed with future dates is not recognized

I'm using a jquery function to load an RSS feed with Ajax: Chrome can see both past and future RSS entries but Firefox doesn't show entries with a date in the future: is there something else I should do (I'd like to avoid writing an RSS feed and an html page with the same data that I would have to later update)?

Do you see the same behavior if you load the feed directly? In Firefox, you can use
Bookmarks > Subscribe to this page...
when the page contains a <link> tag recognized as a feed.
In that case, you might need to bypass Firefox's transformation and parse your XML using your own code.

RSS feed with thumbnails

I'm creating a website where I have a classifieds section with featured ads which I can generate an RSS feed with images for.
I am looking for a way to set up an rss reader on my dreamweaver homepage which would scroll through the featured ads, which is easy enough to do with the title and description, but I would also like to include the thumbnails.
I just thought about it because of NetVibes, here's an example on the top left:
http://www.netvibes.com/yelkezin#Noticias_gerais
This google ajax API is perfect if I can figure out how to diplay the thumbnails.
http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/?exp=feeds#dynamic_feed_control_-_vertical
Does anybody know the code to be able to do this? Or information on how to do this?
I've been looking all over but haven't found anything concrete that I understand (I am not a programming expert, just a designer looking to spice up my site) Any tiny bit of information or help will be greatly appreciated.

If you go to this site you will find the google code there.

Sorry you have already done that, so just edit the code to point to your website, (this is where it says title and url).

Can you add an RSS feed on an iweb blog that would allow visitors to receive new entries by email?

Can you add an RSS feed on an iweb blog that would allow visitors to receive new blog entries through their email?

RSS feeds don't do that - if they add the feed to an RSS reader (including Safari or FireFox) they will see new updates every time they check: but sending them emails on each added episode would require extra programming in the actual program, which iWeb doesn't provide. You would need to have a mailing list and send out an email manually each time you add an episode.

Retrieve an RSS feed with socket within script

Hi, does anyone has ever used a script to retrieve an RSS feed with socket.
Here is the code I use :
var webConnect = new Socket;
var response = new String;
var rss = "";
if(webConnect.open("api.meteorologic.net:80","UTF-8")){
webConnect.write("GET /forecarss?p=Paris");
response = webConnect.read(9999999);
response = response.toString();
var xmlStart = response.indexOf("<?xml");
var xmlString = response.substring(xmlStart, response.length);
    try
        rss = new XML(xmlString);
    }catch(e){ alert('error parsing XML with error \r ' + e.toString()) }
alert(rss);
but the display "alert(rss);" is blank while the web page contains much information : http://api.meteorologic.net/forecarss?p=Paris
thanks for any help..
Michel

That's because "publishing a feed" is really "uploading a file to a web server". Most web servers don't allow the HTTP "PUT" method, and most RSS feeds are probably not updated that way. Rather, the feed document is uploaded to the web server in whatever way the web hosting service provides; FTP, or via a POST from a web form. Since there's no standard, it makes sense that there's no API for publishing a feed.
For any given web hosting service, it's possible to automate the upload; but the details will vary.

IPhoto - MobileMe gallery subscription - problem with password-protected

I am having a peculiar problem with subscribed galleries from MobileMe in iPhoto 08 and iPhoto 09. For galleries that have password-protection enabled, the full URL of the gallery subscription feed is pulled through as the Subscription title instead of the gallery title.
For example "http://gallery.e.com/ACCOUNT-NAME/XXXXXX/?webdav-method-truthget&depth=infinit y&feedfmt=atom....
This doesn't occur for public MobileMe galleries. The title of the gallery comes across and the URL of the subscription is hidden.
Anyone having similar problems? Local Genius Bar couldn't help and assumed it was just a bug, but it doesn't seem to be typical of Apple.
As an aside, it would also be nice to have these feed subscriptions behave similarly to the way RSS subscriptions work in Mail, with the ability to select how often the feed is queried and indicate the number of new items. This would alert users of changes to feeds.
Joe

Upon further research, it appears that this problem occurs when publishing from either iPhoto or Aperture to MobileMe. The problem seems to be when a gallery is published and one chooses not to have the gallery appear on the main gallery page (hidden). It seems to have nothing to do with whether or not one protects the gallery with a password.
So, Apple, if you are listening, can you provide any information on how to have the title of the gallery come through when subscribing using iPhoto while at the same time not listing the gallery on the main MobileMe gallery page? This seems to be a fixable bug.

RSS feed, repeated password prompts

I experience this issue on both Mac OS versions that I use: Mac OS 10.5.8 with Mail 3.6 and Mac OS 10.6.4 with Mail 4.3.
I want to subscribe to an RSS feed for a blog. However, the blog and RSS feed are on a private, encrypted website. I can successfully add the RSS feed to the Mail program by...
1) In the "File" menu, select "Add RSS feeds..."
2) Paste the "feed://......" address.
3) Click "Add".
4) When prompted, enter my username/password as assigned by the website.
The RSS feed successfully appears in Mail's sidebar and the contents load.
However, later in the day it starts to fail. An exclamation mark (within a triangle) appears alongside the RSS feed. Clicking on the symbol results in the message below. I again enter the username/password, but later that same day, it will fail again, and again, and again.
"To view this feed, you need to log in to area "Mac OS X Server Web Services" on wiki.chsj23.org:443.
"Your login information will be sent securely.
"Name: ___________
"Password: __________
"This password will be stored in your keychain.
"{Cancel} {Log In}"
Thoughts?

I do not know if this is a permanent solution, but off-list I discovered something. If I access the associated website, I am of course prompted to log in. I now checked "Remember Me" via that login window, using Safari as my web browser. If I go back to "Mail", the RSS feed now works.

Send email with password protected zip file attachment

Hi Experts,
The requirement is to zip a password protected excel file and send the zipfile through email. There is no middleware(PI) involved. The program has to be run in background mode. It is possible to create a password protected excel file using OLE method, but it will not work in background mode.
Also it is possible to place the zip file in application server, but I am not able to give password for this file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
You have to write a customer adapter module to handle this requirement.
Zip/Unzip can be done using the payloadzipbean standard module:

Is encoding an option instead of password for you:

RSS feeds and tags for blog series?

Hi,
We are trying to establish a blog series for news regarding our small OS/DB platform (DB4). Granularity of Categories regarding SDN blogs is far too low to shrink the contents suitably for our target group by using RSS feeds for a Category. And I suppose there is no way to create a dedicated category for the small amount of contributions to expect.
So, the current approach is to tell people to subscribe to the RSS feed pointing to my personal account. This is only a bad workaround. I'd prefer tagging the blog series with a specific keyword so other members of our group could contribute to the series, and blog contributions to other topics by me could be filtered out.
Any suggestions? Thanks a lot,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
My suggestion would be to use the SCN wiki
Each space has its own rss feed. I believe there is also a new way to work with specific wiki pages and labels.
I recommend you reach out to Moshe Naveh from my team and he'll assist.

RSS feeds with ColdFusion?

I did a forum search here for this before posting but didn't
really find a definitive answer.
Is there a good tool to generate RSS feeds when you're using
ColdFusion as a platform?
A couple of years ago I purchased a plugin from Interakt
(sp?) that generated RSS feeds using PHP very quickly (connecting
to the database, etc.). I just had to enter the parameters that I
wanted syndicated and PRESTO! Instant RSS!
Is there a comparable tool (Dreamweaver type plug-in or
stand-alone application) for ColdFusion? I'm switching all of my
coding efforts to ColdFusion this year for the college where I
work.
thank you!

You just have to write a xml file with cffile.
You can find the syntax here :
