Using an RSS feed

Another question, has anyone embedded an RSS feed on a page? My client wants a medical news feed on their site and I see several that are RSS based. Here is the one we are looking at:
feed://www.medpagetoday.com/rss/Cardiology.xml
Can it be embedded into a page without any of the blue top?

Depending on the feed's markup, you can use CSS to style it.
Personally, I run any content from an external source through my own PHP to sanitize it (to avoid cross site scripting bugaboos) and to style it.

How to use iweb rss feed in an iphone web app?

So this is my dilemma. I wanted my iweb turned into a web app using the rss feed.
This is simply done cause of the "Add To Homescreen" feature.
While the RSS feed works beautifully on safari... it does not read as a webapp.
This surprised me cause I thought it would still be safari that would be loading my web app.
I tried everything to get my RSS feed to work in a web app but i failed miserably.
Is there a fix for this?

Adding to the homescreen doesn't make it a webapp.
It creates a shortcut to the webpage, just as dragging a url to the desktop creates a .webloc file.
You want an iWeb "webapp"?
Add this page to the homescreen and then click that icon :
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/Fancy/Dynamic_Text.html
Then click the links in the dynamic textboxes.
I leave it to you to figure out how it's done. Hint : read the documentation.
To summarize : you want a fix for a problem that does not exist.

How can I use an RSS feed in my course?

The University System of Georgia goes to considerable effort to provide its 36 institutions with a content management system that auto-generates RSS feeds, including iTunes U-specific tags. We use it to feed content to our iTunes U public sites as well as in many other venues such as our statewide LMS. These RSS feeds also work nicely with the authenticated side of iTunes U which some faculty still use to support their classes.
So why is it that I cannot use an RSS feed in my all new iTunes U course?

Just to confirm that you originally had a podcast accepted in the iTunes Store, and now you have had a second version accepted with a different Store URL? The procedure you have followed is the correct one, though I don't know how long it's likely to take the Store staff to get round to removing it. Just remove the original feed from the server: it will still show in the Store, which has cached it, but obviously subscribing won't work, and the absence of the feed may encourage the Store staff to remove the Store page.

Using xml rss feeds in dreamweaver

I used dreamweaver to configure a rss feed in my webpage.
One thing led to another and I was forced to reinstall my php
server via
xampp
Now when I load the page on my computer I have this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method domdocument::loadXML()
in
N:\INETPUB\xampp\htdocs\1purpose_bethel\includes\MM_XSLTransform\MM_XSLTransform.class.ph p
on line 303
I checked the includes folder and I do have the class file
MM_XSLTransform.class.php
but what I am wondering is if there is a place in my php.ini
file that needs
to modified to allow for the RSS feed? Or is there something
else that I am
over looking?
any insight would be greatly appreciated
thank you
Kevin

Hi, I'm also having the same error. I found in some other
forums that I should do the following (I think its you David who
suggested it):
comment the line --> $xml =
DOMDocument::loadXML($content);
then add these two lines
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$err = $doc->loadXML($content);
Well, actually when MM_XSLTransform.class.php was created it
was already updated. But I'm still getting the error.
I'm still a baby in PHP and I've been trying to figure it out
for 2 days and nothing is happening.
Please, please...your response will be highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Jeng

What is RSS feeds and how it can be used in Portal.

Hi All,
Please someone have any idea , "How can we use the RSS feeds in portal " . This is a new concept for me , so I m totally aliegn for this topic.
Thanks in advance.
Mayank kumar saxena

Hi,
We already done some development based on rss feed, but it was not for any portal content.
We generated these files outside portal then scheduled to upload to km folder.
In portal, we have to use km repostitory to store these file. By setting these folders for anonymous access, user can subsribe to this Feed, which will get updated with out login.
The basic requirement to develope rss feed is to understand the xml format. With the help of internet you can learn, its simple.
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<rss version="2.0">
<channel>
<title>title</title>
<description>desc</description>
<LINK>http://link.com</LINK>

</rss>
Try to put this code in km as xml file and browse it. This file will act as Feed. Search internet for more info about feeds.
Here is some related threads which you can use as reference.

Using RSS Feeds and Podcasts

I've spent some time trying to figure all of this out but for some reason I can't quite grip how it all works, and how to do it. If anyone knows of any links that would help me how to create a podcast and use the RSS Feeds in iWeb, that would be great. Or if anyone knows an easy way to explain it.

Hi Josh,
I'm having similar problems as you -- I created a website on iWeb, and made a podcast in mp3 format that I put on the site. I wanted to submit the RSS feed to iTunes, so the podcast would be available through the iTunes store. But neither iTunes nor Feedburner recognizes the URL for the RSS feed. I'm wondering if I got the URL wrong, or if iWeb's automatically-generated "Subscribe" button doesn't work, or what. Any tips? Whatever happened with your podcast? I've spent hours and hours online trying to figure this out. Thanks!

Using bing dynamic wallpapers or a rss feed as a wallpaper?

Hi
Is it possible to use Bing's new dynamic wallpapers on Snow Leopard? ( http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/bing-dynamic )
Or is it possible to use a RSS Feed as a wallpaper?
If not, then I'll have to make myself some script that'll do the trick but I still have the way to change the wallpaper to figure out...

RSS Feeds - for generating feed if new folio is created.

Hi All,
Can we use the RSS feeds , to notify users, whenever a new folio is created.
How can we use it. ?
can anyone help me in this.
i need just an idea on it .?
Thanks
Saurabh

Since you are connected to BES (which can tightly control what can/cannot be used on a corporate BB device) then you should work with the BES admins to ensure that they allow access to CUC as it is independent of CUCM. Secondly, you should ensure they allow the RSS communication to/from your device and CUC.

That's not a Exchange Management Shell script its just a normal powershell script that uses the EWS Managed API
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd633710(v=exchg.80).aspx . So you can run it from any workstation or server where you have powershell and the Managed API library installed.
You will need to update the line
Add-Type -Path
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\Web Services\1.2\Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.dll"
To
Add-Type -Path
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\Web Services\2.0\Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.dll"
   To cater for the latest version of the Managed API.
  You can scheduled powershell scripts to run using the Task Scheduler eg

RSS Feeds in Show and Share

Hi all,
We have deployed Show and Share in our enterprise, and Cisco DMM with DMP licenses.
We would like to integrate the Show and Share updates using the RSS feeds, is it possible to disable the authentication requirement for the RSS feed?
Thanks in advance.

Mail in Mountain Lion no longer supports RSS feeds. You have to install an RSS feed reader, as the message suggested.

Torss - downloads selected torrents from RSS feeds

I often have a problem with various private torrent trackers that by the time I add to torrent to my client it has already been active for a long time and I struggle to maintain a good ratio. As such I wanted something which could scrape the tracker's RSS feed, find torrents that match various patterns and download the torrent files to a folder for my torrent client to pick up.
So I wrote torss. It's quite simple, but it does what I need it to do. The user defines some rules, decides which "getter" to use (each RSS feed has its own getter) and runs torss with those settings (likely from cron).
Help:
$ torss -h
Usage: /usr/bin/torss -g getter [OPTIONS]...
torss is parser of RSS feeds which downloads files referenced in the RSS if the
title of the entry matches given rules.
-g, --getter getter script to use
-r, --rules rules file to use
-d, --destination destination path to save torrents to
-i, --history history file to use
-h, --help help
The rules file must contain an array named rules containing at least one entry.
These entries should be regular expressions (for grep -Ei) for torrent titles
to be downloaded. See /etc/torss/rules.sample
The getter script will be looked for in ~/.config/torss/getters/, then
/etc/torss/getters/ and finally as a file referenced from the CWD. This means
you can pass either simply the filename or the absolute/relative path.
The destination path will usually be a folder where your torrent client
automatically picks up torrent files.
The history file is used to ensure the same torrent isn't downloaded multiple
times, as such it should, for normal use, be left as the default value.
Example Use:
~/.config/torss/rules:
rules[0]="foobar S01E[0-9]{2}(.+)?720(.+)?x264"
Those rules match what's in a demo getter script that's included in torss.
$ torss -g demo
Downloading 'Foobar S01E02 720p x264-Pirate' to /home/sid
Downloading 'Foobar S01E01 720p x264-Pirate' to /home/sid
There is also a history file to avoid downloading the same torrents a second time.
I've created the following PKGBUILD, but not yet put it in the AUR as I'd like some feedback first.

EOF
Since it's on github I know I could use git to clone the repo for the latest code, but I prefer using tags to state releases. This way things like aurcheck/yaourt/packer/etc know there has been an update.
Some private trackers (the ones I made for myself) are already included, though you'll need to edit them, setting the cookiejar values to those of your own cookies.
I would greatly appreciate feedback, this is the first non-trivial bash script I've written.

Yes - and the same here all of a sudden. Very annoying indeed. I really don't want to have to have another app. just to read my RSS feeds but is that going to be the solution? I'm sure this trouble started after I'd inadvertently erased messages instead of marking them all read. And it's only with two VersionTracker feeds too, not the others I get. VT have yet to respond to my request for ideas but if the y do, I'll post here again.

IWeb RSS feed address is wrong and "Visit" button address is wrong

Any ideas why when visitors try to use the RSS feed, it uses an incorrect address ? How/where do I correct the address the RSS feed should direct to? I'm using mobileme to host my webpage and blog.
As an extra question, when I hit the VISIT button on the bottom of the iWEb editing page, the link is also broken. Are these two related?
Thanks to everyone for any input!

Please visit : douglaslittlephotography.ca
If you type that in, and go to the blog, and hit the RSS feed, it doesn't work. . .
Thanks for looking and helping!

Problem with validating my RSS Feed

Hi,
Been trying to submit my podcasts to iTunes but got a problem as it keeps coming up saying 'We had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed'.
My feed is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/MarkandNinashow and when i check it on feedvalidator.org it says the following;
Recommendations
This feed is valid, but interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations.

line 13, column 82: Misplaced Item (17 occurrences) [help]... sic" /><itunes:category text="Comedy" /><item>
Could someone please help me with this as i have no idea what this all means.
would appreciate any help.
Many thanks,
Mark Evans

Hi
Thanks for this. I'm new to this as when it was done before, someone else did it for me and I have no contact with them now.
Originally our interviews etc were uploaded to soundcloud and then I used Google Feedburner for RSS feed then submitted to iTunes the feedburner link and that was it - iTunes would automatically update.
But our station has now been told we must use Mixcloud for licensing and copyright reasons. So all I did was use an RSS feed converter for mixcloud as is is what was suggested. I then used this generated link on Feedburner then used feedburner link for iTunes - well I tried.
Hope the above makes sense. Was this correct thing to do? Or is it a mixcloud problem?
I'm not very technical so a lot of this talk in your response was foreign to me.
Are you able to help?
Many thanks for your time.
Mark

RSS Feed jumps back to my home page

I have a Mobile Me Account that points to my own URL. I've been using iWeb to create and update my site, and now I'd like to use the RSS feed so people can get the updates on my blog. However, when you click the RSS button on the site, it just jumps to my home page.
Can any one help.
My site is www.teamkleinheinz.com if that helps at all.
Thanks in advance.

If the above work, try a reset.
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
2. For about 10 seconds
3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
4. Ignore the red slider
