Hi,
I've been working on an RSS feed for oxle, based on the SHNForum rss.asp file. Here you can find it.
http://www.oxle.com/rss.asp
Source: http://www.oxle.com/source.asp?page=rss.asp (user demo/demo)
I'm running into 2 problems :
- I cannot seem to define the correct date for each item...it shows up in sharpreader with the date of retrieval (and not of the actual posting).
I guess the format is not correct - The styles used aren't used. I've got some styles defined for for instance the quote-table etc, and I cannot seem to 'link' them...If you now open any item in sharpreader, you'll see what I mean.
I've already put the styles in a seperate file (css.css), and included that in the rss.asp file, but nothing happens.
Next to that I want this file to be refreshed only once every 10 minutes, to prevent bandwidth-leaking on this side...
Any suggestions ? Oh, before I forget ; I'm an XML newbie, and very new to RSS... |

A few things.
Not sure why your dates are wrong, the code looks ok at first glance.
For your rss to use styles it needs a stylesheet definition in the outputted XML the same as you would for a HTML file, your output does not have a style sheet definition.
The "refreshing" every 10 mins to prevent bandwidth leakage, is not actually possible from your rss feeds point of view, this is normally a function of your rss reader or rss agregator, you could try using a http expire in the response header of the output which should cause the client to cache it |
