I would like to create a RSS feed from my Access Database.
I have an Access table for news which has the article title, date, and
story in it. What I would like to do is pull the data from there into an
xml file to create the RSS feed, so when users upload a news story it
automatically updates in the xml file. Can this be done with asp? and where
should I look for more information.
today a client asked me for an RSS feed on their website. I've never done it before. Bascially i've just spend a while on google and worming my way around the web but just cant seem to get my head around how the heck I make this thing work.
I basically want to embed an rss feed on a website in a little section that will act like a news bar. Can anyone describe to me in the simplest possible terms how i do it. Thats an rss feed, as part of a website. Not a descktop application or anything, it needs to be embedded.Im thinking its the morning tierdness thats making me 'not get it'
i am new to this RSS. so can any body tell me wat is RSS feed? wat is the benifit?
View Replies View RelatedI have this statement which produces data from an RSS feed. The statement works well but I'm confused on how to format the {DC:DATE}.The date currently displays like this: 2006-05-22T08:57:00-04:00. I might like something else ie May 22, 2005 or maybe time.
This statement is inside ASP Tags.
ItemTemplate = " <a class='rssLink1' href=" & """{LINK}""" & ">{TITLE}</a> {DC:DATE}<BR>"

View Replies View RelatedFirstly, I am not a programmer, so forgive my complete and utter ignorance of all things ASP related.I am trying to display an RSS feed on a website using some ASP which I found on this website - http://www.tele-pro.co.uk/scripts/rs...d_class_dl.htm
I have downloaded the script and running it locally it works (kind of):-
However, when I put this page on my web server I get an error message:-

how to create the RSS for a static ASP site. I have used CMS before which has buitin feature of creating the RSS. I like to write own RSS for individual pages. The site in question is SIPLNET.COM
View Replies View RelatedI could post the various bits of code that I've tried to use to get this to work... but it'd be kind of pointless as I haven't gotten very far with either of them (I've run across encoding problems, and problems where it works on the local machine, but not through ASP. I've tried using an XLT doc and without).

View Replies View Relatedi am trying to create my own rss feed.
I have got the xml to display in the browser. However, isn't an rss feed supposed to show the links and details in a list so when the user clicks on the link, it's supposed to go to that site? Code:
if I make an rss feed from my site and put the address into IE, it just flashes and nothing happens. However, if I go to another browser, nothing much happens, but I can view the source and it's proper.
I then copy that source into a whatever.xml file and then upload it. Put that address into IE - and it looks like every other .xml file. The rss feed does validate as well.
So - here's my q: is there any way to get this to show in a friendly manner if clicked on? I'd like to just provide the link to the rss file on my site for people to use (without having to provide instruction of what's inside it).
I have been struggling with this for ages and have seen nothing but brick walls! This is what I'm trying to do:
1. Read the information from this Yahoo weather feed:
ptth//:xml.weather.yahoo.com/forecastrss?p=AUXX0040&u=c
(i changed the http etc as it wouldn't let me post the link)
2. Pluck out selected info like weather status and temperature etc and display it using my own formatted text/icons on my website.
It seems so simple, I just cannot get it to work. Please can anyone help me with the parsing function? and then how to display the info?
How I include RSS feed into my website using ASP?
View Replies View RelatedI need to find a way to import a csv file into a sql database via classic asp or if easy .net to update a table. Every time this is imported i would like to overwrite the existing data in the database.
View Replies View Relatedi'm trying to change the following include statement :
<div id="contents">
<!-- #include file="includes/main_page.asp" -->
</div>
on an ASP page into something that receives the file name as a variable :
<div id="contents">
<!-- #include file="<%=fileToInclude%>" -->
</div>
however, this doesn't seem to work, as i get the following error message :
The include file '<%=fileToInclude%>' was not found.
it obviously is trying to find a file named <%=fileToInclude%> instead of seeing the variable my question is : is it possible to feed a variable into an include statement ?
if yes, how should i go about it ? if not, are there any alternatives ?

Basically I want to parse an XML feed - the problem being the XML data itself has a .asp extension and a few query strings.
I can currently parse the same xml data if I save it with a .xml extension, just not with the .asp extension and query strings. Code:
I can get the content feed to work with a simple javascript but once I add ASP the whole thing strangely fails. Code:

View Replies View RelatedI an using ASP to read a database table and generate an HTML table
which is save via FSO with a file extension of .xls which opens up
in MS-Excel. I am inserting several lines of text into a cell and would
like to force a line break between them.
I recorded an MS-Excel macro so see how Alt-Enter was captured
which turned out to be Chr(10) which is the same as vbLf (right?)
I tried inserting that in character in the text but it didn't show up as
a line break in MS-Excel.
I need to display the contents of an external XML/RSS feed in an ASP page. I have found a couple of scripts that seem to do the trick at:
(URL address blocked: See forum rules)
(URL address blocked: See forum rules)/ow.asp?ASP_Based_RSS_Reader
(any good alternatives will be much welcome)
However, my problem is that the ASP page is part of an Intranet site, so it can only access the Internet (in order to fetch the RSS) via a proxy server.
Can somebody tell me how can I modify the above scripts (or any other that does the same) so the IP/port/login/password parameters can be passed along with the feed URL?
This is a mix of technologies so I hope I've put this in the right place.
I have a system where people can sign up to a data feed. They place a single line of Javascript on their web page and a formatted banner of products is displayed based on the options they have chosen in their affiliate account.
<script language="Javascript" src="http://www.somewhere.com/feed.asp"></script>
The original system was built by our developer 3 or 4 years ago, and worked fine. However, he built the system using two ASP files - feed.asp which looks like this:
