I want to get the RSS feeds from news.bbc.co.uk and use them on my website
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonlin...page/rss091.xml
is an example of the data.
what do people think is the best way to incorporate these into my site?Do I read the XML data from the BBC site or download the file every 20mins or so and then read the file locally.also can anyone point me to a resource that can tell me how to write the XML
data to the page?
I am in the process of creating a blogging community site. What I want to do is use their Blog RSS feeds to create a recently posted list with say the last 20 feeds. I have access to both atom and RSS.xml files.
The trouble is I would not know where to start. We are anticipating a community of about 50 bloggers all using Blogger. We are wanting to post the latest entry at the top of the list moving down as new ones get added.
I am trying to create a newsfeed on my website. I used the following code on my website which I found somewhere. I then placed the call to this code in my web document. It does not appear to work. Code:
View Replies View RelatedI want to pull in some RSS news feed from several news sources but I'm not too sure how to use the files that are retrieved. Has anyone got any good tutorials or tips for it?
Is it more efficient to store the news feed in a file on my local server rather than calling it everytime my local page is requested?
Some general tips on this would be really helpful - I'm guessing the XML parser would be required at some stage...

View Replies View RelatedI have made an ASP page that dynamically creates an XML page from articles stored in an Access Database. It works great and i was well pleased with myself.I was then sitting back admiring my own work when i suddenly thought.The page ends in .asp and not .xml.So i downloaded some free feed readers and news readers and they all found the feed with no problem and i thought i was going to be alright then it clicked - What if the "person" who wants to add my feed to their own site for example, has their site written in PHP?
I wrote a little PHP script that dynamically inserts feeds and sure enough, it will not accept a feed URL ending in .asp. It's (of course) fine if it ends in .xml So, (sorry for going on) Im wondering on your thoughts about this and what you would do? How LESS efective do you think an XML feed ending in .asp is?
i want to get the rss newsfeed from the other news site and want display on my site in the html format. can any tell me that how i can do it using asp.
View Replies View RelatedI'm looking to build an ASP script that can pull in the XML for a podcast feed and display important information (podcast title, description, link, etc). For some reason, I have been unsuccessful in getting this to work, despite a number of tries.
Does anyone have experience doing this or any examples that they can refer me to? For some reason my scripts have been unable to read the enclosure tag, and to be honest, I don't have advanced knowledge of ASP - XML interaction to really know why.

View Replies View RelatedMy database has a field called Text that stores pre-formatted text in the form of:
String & vbcrlf
String & vbcrlf

So there is a line of text, line break, line of text, etc and looks like:
First Line of text
Second Line of Text
Third Line of Text
. . . .
Last Line of Text
I've created a regular expression that searches for instances of line feeds followed by any character ....
When users fill out my text area field, there is a chance that there
will be no line feeds or cariage returns or spaces and just one really
long word.
THIS CAUSES A MAJOR PROBLEM! What I am trying to do is
force a vbCrLf if a string is long than 80 characters in a row. So if
a string is a total of 500 characters with no line feeds, spaces, or
returns, I want to force a vbCrLf every 80 characters so that is
doesn't overflow my preview text field on the next page.
Any suggestions on how the algorithm would be for this in VBscript
ASP?
I am trying to download files from one website to another for purposes
of caching. In trying to do this, I created a VB dll component (using
VB6), that used URLDownloadToFile, to allow me to download the file
onto the receiving site. The sending site supports an ASP page that
allows the file to be downloaded.The component works fine when run in debugging mode, placing the file as expected. But when not debugging (but registered), it reports that
the file has been downloaded, but the file is not there.
I am looking for some VB Script tutorials possibly as a pdf file that one can download and take print out of as one single file. I can see a lot of VB Script tutorials on the net but not offered as a single PDF file all in html format and explained on different pages.
View Replies View Relatedwhere I can download PWS Personal Web Server,or IIS from,ideally for as little cost as possible?I have XP Pro, but I've tried typing "inetmgr" in the Run field in Start Menu but it says it can't find inetmgr,and there is no IIS or PWS in my Program menus or submenus on my machine that I can see.
I had heard my XP Pro may have come with IIS but this doesn't seem to be the case with my pc. I have IIS on my server at work which has Windows 2000.Is it possible to copy an .exe install application of somekind which would be used to install IIS on another machine? What would the .exe file be called and where would it be located?
Is there a reference document for ASP (not ASP.NET) which can be downloaded? Perhaps an SDK? Where could I find this?

I'm using ADODB objects to download the images. Is there any way I can disable 'Save' option on a prompt. Also, when display the image (it could be any of the following files: .doc, xls, txt, pdf...), I need to disable 'Save' option or hide the toolbar.
View Replies View RelatedI don't know if this is possible, but does anybody know whether you can determine how long a file took to download. I want to be able to log how long a download took.
View Replies View RelatedMy problem is: i need to write an ASP page which first checks whether
the user has permissions to download a ZIP file, and then streams the
file itself if the user is allowed to see it.
I have succeeded until
this point, but the client browser asks to save the file with the
original filename (and ASP extension). Obviously this would mean
making the downloaded file unusable at client side, unless I tell the
site user to manually rename it, but this is not a solution.
So I ask you: is there any way for an ASP page to stream data to the
browser and have it saved with a default file name and extension which
are different from the page's ones? Code:
I'm having a problem with a script that makes the browser download a PDF instead of opening it.But when the file is downloaded, it downloads nothing.
The code is:
[vbs]
Set FSO = server.createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
FileThere = FSO.FileExists(server.mapPath(request.querystring("f")))
If FileThere then
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" & request.querystring("f")
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
else
response.write("Sorry, file could not be found")
end if
Set FSO = nothing
[/vbs]
let me know and I'll pm you the address for it.
I need to show how long a given file size will download.
View Replies View RelatedWe have to provide a facility on the client machines to download the data
visible on a ASP page into an excel sheet. We are using WIN2k clients
connected to WIN2k server with IE6.0 installed.
The way we plan to implement it is that :
a) provide a right click and download to excel button from the ASP page
visible in IE.
b) on click of download make a server call passing the appropriate command
to send back the data in excel format.
My questions are :
Q1) Is there anyway to avoid the server call? I am not looking for OCX
either?
Q2) Are there any issues to do with memory leaks / deadlocks in case we use
such office automation to generate a report in excel? Is there a way around?
I have an example running at the moment that shares some 15,000 MP3 files however to offer these as downloadable i would be breaking the law i think !
I would like to set it up so that i have a method where the user can build a play list by going through the files and selecting them and then they would would be played either through the clients own system applications or through media components i can build into the site.
Maybe i could have some controls on there.
also why does the script not like to display files with the .ISO file extention ?
I want to make a support-page where people can download the latest help-files (these will be in a database) but I don't know how to do this (I only know the basics of ASP).
I don't mean that, for example a pdf, should open in another window. When you click on the filename it should give the standard downoad-box 'Open', 'Save', 'Cancel'.
Does anyone know how to do this? Or maybe there is some code on the net that explains it.
Downloaded the sendMail.htm and sendMail.asp sample files
from technet onto my IIS 4.0 server. The first 2-3 times
I tested all went well. Subsequent tests, with no server
changes, gave/gives me the "File Download" dialogue box
when the sendMail.asp file should be executing. Why does
sendMail.asp give a "File Download" box instead of just
executing?
While my wwwroot is under C:inetput, how can I make URL pointing to the

I need to have script that automatic download files (open a "save file

I am in need of allowing permissioned users of a particular web app using ASP to query a table and then allow them to download an excel formatted version of the data they can use offline.
