Hi,
I'm working on the example on Rss Feed which needs to integrated to our website.Hence below link i'm using for my reference purpose.

AS3 RSS FEED XML Namespace

AS3 - FLASH 10
Hello,
I'm having some trouble understanding how can I access a tag in a xml RSS Feed 2 format. Some tags have, what I think to be, namespaces that just ignore my request when accessing such tag. Here is an example:
// XML LOADED
<rss>
<channel>
<item>
    <title>POST TITLE</title>
    <link>http://domain.org/blog/2009/08/post-name/</link>
    <comments>http://domain.org/blog/2009/08/post-name/#comments</comments>
    <pubDate>Mon, 31 Aug 2009 21:39:40 +0000</pubDate>
    <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator>
    <category><![CDATA[CATEGORY]]></category>
    <category><![CDATA[CATEGORY]]></category>
    <guid isPermaLink="false">http://domain.org/blog/?p=3</guid>
    <description><![CDATA[DATA[...]]]></description>
    <content:encoded><![CDATA[DATA]]></content:encoded>
    <wfw:commentRss>http://domain.org/blog/2009/08/post-name/feed/</wfw:commentRss>
    <slash:comments>0</slash:comments>
</item>
</channel>
</rss>
// FLASH CODE
trace ( xml.channel.item.title ) // Output POST TITLE
trace ( xml.channel.item.content ) // Output undefined or “”
… same for wfw and slash tags.
Any help?
Regards

One of the ways is to use regular expressions and replace all the unwanted namespaces with pure tags:
1. Get the xml data as string:
var xmlString:String = [write the data here]
2. Pattern for the tags with namespaces is something like this:
var exp:RegExp = /<\\|(\w+):(\w+)>/gi;
3. This is just to demostrate what it outputs: - is not needed in the final code
var tagsArray:Array = xmlString.match(exp);
var currentOccurance:Array;
for (var i:int = 0; i < tagsArray.length; i++) {
     currentOccurance = tagsArray[i].split(":");
     trace("left = " + currentOccurance[0] + "; right = " + currentOccurance[1]);
It outputs something like this:
left = content; right = encoded>
left = content; right = encoded>
left = wfw; right = commentRss>
left = wfw; right = commentRss>
left = slash; right = comments>
left = slash; right = comments>
4. Depending on what side you want to use in the final tag:
a. If left:
xmlString = xmlString.replace(exp, "$1");
It will make the following changes:
From:
<content:encoded>....</content:encoded>
<wfw:commentRss>...</wfw:commentRss>
To:
<content>....</content>
<wfw>...</wfw>
b. if right:
xmlString = xmlString.replace(exp, "$2>");
It will make the following changes:
To
<encoded>....</encoded>
<commentRss>...</commentRss>
The final code is actually 4 lines only (assuming you use complete event):
var xmlString:String = e.target.data;
var exp:RegExp = /<\\|(\w+):(\w+)>/gi;
xmlString = xmlString.replace(exp, "$1");
var myXML:XML = new XML(xmlString);
Viola! You can parse xml regular way.

RSS Feed XML iView Suffix

Hi,
we created a XML iView for a RSS Input. Out problem is, if the rss - feed ends upon .xml everything work fine. Unfortunatly our RSS - feed URL does not end with .xml and so the iView produces only an error message.
Does anyone know how to configure the iView to run without the xml suffix? (We are not able to manipulate the RSS feed)
Greetings

sorry bur i don't know!

Need help generating an rss feed via jsp

this is ridiculous, but i cannot get my jsp to generate rss feed code. i am querying my database for stories, then displaying the various fields within the rss xml codes. the page either refuses to load altogether or displays the content as one run-on sentence (i.e., without the xml codes). i'd prefer most of all to have a nice xml-look-and-feel display to show up in my browser, but i can live without it as long as someone hitting the url of my page can get the rss feed to parse. however, the page generally just refuses to load anything.
if anyone has any input or suggestions, i'd greatly appreciate it. i've done countless searches here and web-wide with no results. i get lots of help on parsing (which is a cakewalk as far as i'm concerned compared to this stupid stupid display problem).
here's my jsp (and please no flames about separating out business logic and presentation code):

I will presume you are generating valid xml. What happens if you view source, save it as an xml file, and then try and open it? Is it valid?
Try this at the top of your page.
<%@ page contentType="text/xml" %>
That may help the browser understand that you are sending it xml.
I dunno - I had mixed results with my little experiment here - IE didn't even try to load it sometimes.
Good luck,

The system Pages library and its RSS feed do not work properly in SharePoint 2010

This question is about RSS feed for the system 'Pages' library in SharePoint 2010.
Now there are 5 'News' pages in the system 'Pages' library. In each news page there is one field called 'Title' for the news title. One of the news page is named 'FileNamePage5.aspx', and the news title is 'This is the title of page5'.
I have enabled RSS in Site Settings, and configured RSS Settings for the 'Pages' library from the Communications section via Document Library Settings. I selected a few columns to display in the RSS description, including the 'Title' column. In the RSS feed
(XML file) of the system 'Pages' library, I checked the XML source code, and found the news page file name appearing in the <title> tag below within the feed (XML source code).
<title>FileNamePage5</title>
and the original news title 'This is the title of page5' was appearing in the <description> tag in the feed (XML sorce code)
<description><![CDATA[<div> ... This is the title of page5... </div>]]></description>.
This would make it hard to extract ONLY the original news title (This is the title of page5) out of the feed via XSLT, because the data within the <description> tag in the feed also contains data from all other selected columns defined via the RSS
Setting. If I did not select the 'Title' column via RSS Setting above, I even could not find the orinigal news title in the RSS feed.
This is happening for all other news pages in the system 'Pages' library. Is this what SharePoint 2010 normally does? or is something wrong with the settings for site or the system 'Pages' library?
How to display ONLY the original news title (This is the title of page5) in the <title> tag in the RSS feed. Please Help me to resolve this issue.
谢亚军@Sydney

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the value in Title column of Pages library in title tag in RSS Feed in SharePoint.
I tested the same scenario per your post, the title tag in RSS Feed displayed the value of Name column in libraries and displayed the value of Title column in lists.
It is by design and there is no OOB way to change the default column mapping in RSS Feed.
I recommend to customize your own RSS Feed style sheet to make the title displays the value of Title column in SharePoint libraries.
Here is a link about customizing the RSS Feed for document library for you to take a look:

Best regards.

RSS Feed on Apex

Does anyone know how to show an RSS feed in APEX ? I have seen examples showing shredded items in a report. I want to show the RSS Feed XML as you can see at this link:
http://www.oracle.com/rss/rss_ocom_pr.xml (try the link with Firefox and not with IE)
Anything I do in Apex, it shows as text stripping XML tags.

First, there's a setting in the report attributes to enable / disable HTML tags in your report.
Second, I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve is going to work. I believe (but have not tried) that browsers such as Firefox will render complete XML files, such as an RSS feed, with a default stylesheet. I don't think they'll render XML that is part of and HTML document. IMHO, you should confirm this, perhaps with a simple HTML file with some embedded XML before you start writing a bunch of SQL / PL/SQL to test this.
Third, what is your end goal? If users need a particular browser render this feed, are you perhaps expecting too much of your end users?

Parse RSS feed -System.out

Hi,
As below i have been reading RSS feeds.
When i execute the parser.parse(url) method i get a dump of the xml bones from the feed onto System.out, which in my case is a catalina log file.
Is there any way/method that im not aware of that can prevent this going to System.out?
public void readRSSDocument() throws Exception {
        //Create the parser
        RssParser parser = RssParserFactory.createDefault();
        //Parse our url
        Rss rss = parser.parse(
                new URL("http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_world.rss"));
    }output:

I am presuming that you picked up the code from [this tutorial|http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/javaserverpages/rss_utilities/]
Looks like the library was compiled with System.out.println() statements in it.
There is always the handy little method "System.setOut()" to redirect it.
Alternatively, decompile the code, delete/comment the System.out.println statements and then recompile it.
Its not that hard. Here's the offending class:

How to create an XML/RSS feed from a SQL recordset?

I've been trying to find either a tutorial or extension that will allow me to take a SQL recordset, and create my RSS feed on the fly. Not having much luck... anyone out there have a suggestion??

Thanks PC!
I made it work using:
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
factory.setIgnoringComments(true); // We want to ignore comments
// Now use the factory to create a DOM parser
DocumentBuilder parser = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
//TransformThisStringBuffer is a string buffer wich contain the 'XML document (String)'
InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(TransformThisStringBuffer.toString().getBytes());
// Parse the InputStream and build the document
Document document = parser.parse(in);
But which one is faster InputSource or InputStream, were would you put the "new InputSource(new StringReader(yourString))" in the above code?

RSS - Rolling News - XML Parsing - Accessing KM...

Hello everyone! I am trying to make an iview wich shows rolling news through RSS Feeds, and filtering its content with XLS.
I´ve downloaded an example "Simple XML Parsing iview" and uploaded it into the portal. The thing is that the iview is quite limited because the XSL file has to be in the internet; but i need to have de XLS in the KM, i mean, i need the iview to accept paths like :
http://suarbulpd1d01:50100/irj/go/km/docs/documents/DocumentosPortal/RecursosPortal/Varios/rss-html.xsl
Don´t know how could i modify the code to so i can achieve this.. here it goes:
package com.portalsamples.simplexml;
import java.io.*;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
import javax.xml.transform.Source;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;
import com.sapportals.portal.prt.component.*;
public class simplexsl extends AbstractPortalComponent
     public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
          IPortalComponentProfile profile = request.getComponentContext().getProfile();
          Writer out = response.getWriter();
           try
             //Creates an instance of the transformer
             TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
             //Pulls XMLSource and XSLSource from the iView Profile
             Source xmlSource = new StreamSource(profile.getProperty("xmlsource"));
             Source xslSource = new StreamSource(profile.getProperty("xslsource"));
             response.write(xslSource.toString());
             Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(xslSource);
             //Places resulting HTML into the response
             transformer.transform(xmlSource, new StreamResult(out));
           catch (Exception e)
             response.write(e.getMessage());
Any help will be rewarded...
Regards, Marco.

Hello, this is my new code; although it is limited to only accessing xsl files inside the par, it works perfectly. If you want the complete par for rolling news, my mail is [email protected] .

Blogger RSS feed parser tool

Hello everyone,
Is there any j2ee RSS parsing Utility for reading Blogger feeds? The one I could find in the site
http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/javaserverpages/rss_utilities/
is not parsing all the blogger feed elements. The tld has just a few element tags such as title, url, buildDate. I want to parse all the elements available in blogger feeds. The list of available rss feed elements for blogger is here:
http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=47270
Thanks

you can use a double dot ( .. ) to jump anywhere in your xml. for example,
myXm..link[4]
should reference <link rel="next" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/990363500266599125/posts/default?start-in dex=26&max-results=25"/>

RSS feed: Invalid XML

Hello everyone.
I want to submit my podcast to iTunes, but I have a problem with the XML file.
Feed Validator said to me:
Sorry
This feed does not validate.
line 1, column 0: XML parsing error: <unknown>:1:0: not well-formed (invalid token) [help]{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1036{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fprq2\fcharset ...

{\colortbl ;\red68\green68\blue68;}
For more details, here is the XML file.
I really hope you guys well be able to help me.

You appear to have created your feed in a word processing program: it's full of formatting codes such as \par, and the opening couple of lines are full of garbage: the required xml declaration is missing.
This page includes a sample basic feed so you can see what one should look like: your feed must be plain text.

HAVi Widget to display RSS feeds using Nanoxml parser

I have got an assignment of developing a HAVi widget to display RSS feeds using the NanoXML parser. I am a beginner in JAVA tv concepts and is stuck with this problem on how to start!
Can please someone help?

Havi widgets are lightweight components. You could start by creating a Havi widget extending HComponent and overriding paint method. For the initial urpose, try using some dummy text to fill in your widget. You can later experimenting with the XML parser and query it to dislay the actual text you would want to (remember to get rid o the dummy text).

Download RSS feed as xml file from Sharepoint Online using PowerShell

Hello
Our company sharepoint (Office 365) contains also several RSS feeds.
How it is possible to download xml file out of this feed (website) using PowerShell?
I can authenticate with sharepoint using CSOM but do not what to do next.
As service user is not administrator I cannot use "SPOService".
This script works OK for standard website, but not for Sharepoint.
$doc = New-Object System.Xml.XmlDocument
$doc.Load("http://www.{CompanySite}.com/feed/")
$doc.save("C:\temp\feed.xml")
I am getting this error when using for company Sharepoint:
"The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden."
Thanks for your time considering this question.

Hi Scott,
thanks for advice.
Combination of WebClient and Sharepoint Credentials is working OK:
$client = New-Object System.Net.WebClient
$client.Credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($User, $SecurePassword)
$client.Headers.Add("X-FORMS_BASED_AUTH_ACCEPTED", "f")
$client.DownloadFile($SiteURL, $file)
