RSS sample script or tutorial

Post by pidobearBUSsb9q » Wed Jul 18, 2012 10:09 am

i am currently an intern at a programming company and was ask to learn about this new software (which i have no knowledge of it) before the supervisor actually purchase it.
i was ask to learn about auto re-sizing according to screen sizes for different devices, connecting to databases, and RSS.

i think the tutorial did covered on auto re-sizing according to screen sizes and connecting to databases, right?
so now what i am lacking is the part on RSS.


anyone here have any RSS sample, script or tutorial that i can refer to?

Cheers,
:D :D :D :D :D

Ah, now you've gone beyond my ability! I just happened to spot the lesson; I've never done anything with RSS feeds, sorry.

I guess you need to check the address is correct for the feed you are after. Beyond that, you need to give some more specific details of the problems you are having, really.

Cheers,

Adrian

RSS is a standard, and everyone interprets it differently. Most approaches to reading RSS deal with a single, known source, and therefore never have to adjust for everyones crazy changes. Furthermore, there's Atom and RSS 1.0 and RSS 2.0, not all pages use the same specs, but most new ones use RSS 2.0 or Atom I think. There's also RSS 0.92 but it's almost completely compatible with 2.0 as far as I know.

I have made a stack that read the forum rss on my page, but it's very specific, not a generic parsers. They updated the forum, so it probably won't work anymore.The rfc's are here:

RSS 1.0:
http://web.resource.org/rss/1.0/spec

RSS 2.0:
http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification

Atom:
http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5023.txt
http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4287.txt
