What is the rss feed to this site?
Friday, November 28, 2003 by joetheblow | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I know someone else asked this before but I just stpent the better half of an hour looking for the answer.
In fact, I though I asked this question before... can't find it.
Anyway, I have a newsfeed page much like daily rotation.com on my almost to be open site and I wanted a news feed from here on stuff
So where is it?

aha... I was thinking about breaking into the DX stuff but I had to remove DX from my computer cause my computer is about to explode from all the use.
I'm looking for News, and Newest additions feeds.
I was also looking for DeviantArt too but I guess I have to email them.
This is what I got so far:

Hmm, T-Man might want to consider putting up a listing of all available backend services over at: https://www.wincustomize.com/backend/ or just enable the directory listing for that folder.
An url as such would be my first guess on where to find info on backends, but what file to get then is beyond guessing.

Hey, the RSS feed doesn't seem to work. I tried to tweak it and stuff and then I thought it was out because of the server, hard drive situation.
Does anyone here know the heads up on that?

wait... I think I see it.
My news.xls that parses the news feed is looking for not .
I guess I have to make a special parser for the feed to see the skin items.
I wonder why its not formated the standard way? I hope JoeUser isn't this difficult.

Ok
Now my question is how do I make a parser for the WinCustomize backend?
I can't seem to find the area where it is looking for *item* so I can change it to *skin*
FYI:
The standard rss protocal is-
(rss)
(channel)
(title)Name of the news feed.(/title)
(link)A url for the source website.(/link)
(description)A short description of the news feed.(/description)
(item)
(title)Headline #1(/title)
(link)A url for the entire news article under headline #1.(/link)
(description)A short blurb about the news article under headline #1.(/description)
(/item)
(/channel)
(/rss)
Where the (item) should be, for wincusto it is called (skin).
This is the news xsl code I am using.

Any suggestions?

Or maybe its in here:
Function getXML(sourceFile)
dim styleFile
dim source, style
styleFile = Server.MapPath("news.xsl")
Dim xmlhttp
Set xmlhttp = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
xmlhttp.Open "GET", sourceFile, false
xmlhttp.Send
set source = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
source.async = false
source.loadxml(xmlhttp.ResponseText)
set style = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
style.async = false
style.load(styleFile)
getXML = source.transformNode(style)
set source = nothing
set style = nothing
End Function
This part goes into the asp page where the news is suppossed to show up.

Question: is the wincustnews.xml feed the only one operational now? I tried the newest.xml feed, but it seems to be broken.

It must be something with Firefox's RSS implementation. I get the XML doc to load, but I can't get the Live Bookmark to work.
