H All,
I am new to this list and have a couple of questions, apologies if they
have been asked too often..
I am creating some feeds with perl and XML::RSS. They validate through
various rss validators and I can read them with RSSReader and
Sharpreader, they also get updated through these two.
Mozilla Thunderbird ( 1.02 and 1.5 RC1) somehow does not update them
automaticly and even a refresh or get new articles does not help. The
only thing I can do is unsubscribe to the feed and subscribe again.
I also try to put one feed on a webpage (a wordpress blog) with a
plugin, this plugin pulls in other (the standard delivered feed) (this
plugin is disabled right now) but all my trial versions generate an error.
The feed: http://test.kuilder.net/lastplayed.rdf
This goes through an apache log file and pulls out the last played songs
that I play through a web server.
I know that there are a few things not according to the standard, for
example the titles are longer than 100 characters.
I also re-create the whole feed from scratch so all the items get a new
timestamp, even if they were in the feed previously
Sharpreader marks as new only the ones that weren't in the feed before.
RSSReader, displayes all ten as new, lot of repeats, I kinda think that
is correct behaviour but that means extra work for me.
My main reference is O'reilly's Content Syndication with RSS , my
edition is from march 2003.
I would like to generate more feeds, especially in the area of parsing
logs to keep an easier eye on them and some other feeds for fun and
profit but I seem to miss some basic information.
So any good pointers to information on how feeds REALLY should be
created?, books, sites etc. And some pointers on what I am doing wrong
would be nice too.
Regards,
Gerrit Kuilder
