HTML - Can I Keep An Rss Feed File On My System And Make Firefox See It?
Hi!
I know how to create an rss feed file. But how to link it in a web page. what I am trying to do is to create a file of my todos, keep it in my Firefox profile folder and make Firefox's 'Live Bookmarks' see it. Thanks Similar TutorialsI'm relatively novice in web page development. In my recent work it is required to let user browse thro' web server files system, similarly as one can do it with <input type=file> tag. What I learnt is, there in no equivalent input tag to do so. Is there any other way to do accomplish this task The following common code is not working in Firefox (3.0.11). It works in Safari (4.02) and IE7. When I say not working, I mean that when I click the submit button, the address does not change to the form processing url: Code: <!-- The data encoding type, enctype, MUST be specified as below --> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST"> <!-- MAX_FILE_SIZE must precede the file input field --> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" /> <!-- Name of input element determines name in $_FILES array --> Send this file: <input name="mp3file" type="file" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send File" /> </form> The file uploader.php does nothing, it is blank, I'm merely trying to establish communication. Once again, the code functions in IE and Safari so I dont think this is PHP related. I'd like to make a sign in, sign out system for my site, But i'd like it to be free. I think maybe im asking to much....if not and the process for this is simple can anybody tell me hows its done....Thanks. My site is www.studiopops.com http://www.mythlabb.com/ IE displays the top logo just fine. Firefox displays it as a broken image. It's just a .jpg file, nothing special, and it's on the page as a regular image tag right at the top of the Body tag. Am I missing some little Firefox quirk here or something? I removed the text content in the code snippet below but it's enough to get the idea. Code: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/mainStyle.css" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" /> </head> <body> <center><img src="images\mythLogo.jpg"></center> <center>webdesign - consultation - graphics<br></center><br><br> <div id="topnav">Insert menu here</div> <div id="maintext">Insert text here</div> </body> </html> Hi everyone. I just found this site. I'm a newbie, still stuck in HTML 4. I have an immediate need to add a powerpoint presentation file to my site so students can download it into their computers. Have tried putting file into root directory, then making tag: <a href="ftp://www.themcmullens.com/test.ppt">Download test</a> Doesn't work. Anyone have any ideas? Hello Everyone, I am putting together a web site that will allow folks to listen to some audio files (.mp3). I do not want them to have the ability to down load them. Do do this, I create an href to the file: <a href="birdcall001.mp3"> This seems to work fine in Microsoft's IE. Microsoft IE brings up the audio player and plays the file. However if I use the Firefox browser, a dialog box comes up and gives the user the choice to listen to the file or to download it. Is there a way to prevent Firefox from giving the user the option to download the file? New to this, but having a lot of fun! Thanks for any help! Steve Told you I was new at this. Additional testing shows: They can also download the file in IE by simply right clicking on the reference. So I guess the real question is "is there a way to allow users to listen to a .mp3 file, but prevent them from downloading the file" Thanks for any insight! I wrote the following stuff. In index2.html I referr to a css File: HTML Code: <link type="css/text" rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" /> Now styles.css is in the same directory as index2.html. While Safari finds this styles.css and Firefox 2 does not. I have no idea what happens here. The formating should be correct. What's wrong? You may have seen this question before, but I cannot for the life of me find an answer that works. I embedded a .swf flash file on a page on my website. This flash plays perfectly on IE and Chrome, but nothing shows up on Safari or Firefox. I, at first, wrote the code by hand. Then I instead used swfobject to properly write the code (this still hasn't fixed the problem) I used the w3 markup validation site to check the code, and it comes back with 0 errors. Any Ideas? The code is below: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="posthink.swf"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> swfobject.registerObject("myFlashContent", "9.0.0"); </script> </head> <body> <div style="text-align: center;"> <object classid="clsid: D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="550" height="400" id="myFlashContent"> <param name="movie" value="posthink.swf" /> </object> </div> </body> </html> (I inserted a space in the classid= tag to do away with the : D turning into a smiley) Thanks for your help. Hello guys, I really need your help in sorting this out. This html file, http://www.koicolors.net/check-this-out/learn.html is damaged when viewed using Mozilla Firefox but not in Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. If anyone has managed to conquer this one, I would appreciate some instructions and suggestions. Thanks, magiclouie I am using this type of format for my rss feed: <?xml version="1.0" ?> <rss version="2.0"> <channel> <title>Bestsellersworld.com</title> <description>The latest book reviews for Bestsellersworld.com and Mysteries Galore</description> <link>http://www.bestsellersworld.com</link> <item> <title>The 5th Horseman by James Patterson</title> <link>http://www.bestsellersworld.com/reviews/patterson-the_5th_horseman.htm</link> </item> It works fine but I was wonder if there is a way I could add an image cover to the feed and if so how do I do it? Hello, I am trying to add an RSS feed that pulls from about a few sites to http://www.econslt.com/test/index3.html under "Breaking News". I want this to update and conform to about the dimensions on the page 235 x 300. This is also my first RSS so I'm not too sure on the process. What is the best way to accomplish this? The site is ECI, I want to pull from the links at http://www.usa.gov/Topics/Reference_...Security.shtml. So, I want them to display as links under the "Breaking News" section. you click, you go to the article. But, how can I make this also something you can subscribe to? Hi all not sure if this is in the right place but here goes... I need to add an rss feed on to a clients site and have no knowledge of how to do this... I need to get the feed from he http://news.cnet.com/8300-11128_3-54...ag=rtcol;about once the feed is on the site i presume i can style links and backgrounds of divs/iframes? If someone can point me in te right direction or has any words of advice i would really appreciate it! thanks matt Hi, I'm having a little trouble finding out how to do a simple rss feed into an i-frame. I have an blogger account but I tried using a javascript tutorial and what came out on my site was an odd gray box with just the posts headline and a link to the post. is it easier to use the atom xml blogger thing? such http://soniccycling.blogspot.com/atom.xml. I would like the feed to show up as simple html that I can add css to. Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial, or something? Thanks in advance for the help. I want to set up a news section on my website from my forums. Like I have an announcement section that I wanted to link to. How do I do that. Not sure where to post this as there isn't really a section for XML / RSS. Mods - Feel free to move it to somewhere else i appropriate. I have written an RSS feed which I want to place on a website I'm managing. Here's my code.

the table positions etc. I have tested this, and although the news readers I am testing in download the original message. When I updste the message and re-upload it to my web server, the readers will not download the new updated message. Is it because they think it's the same message as previously? Is there a setting I can code within the <item> tag that will let readers know it has been updsted? Or maybe giving the items an ID, which I can increment each time, and therefore telling the readers that it's a new version of the file? I want to just update this each week, upload it to the server and know that people who've subscribed to it will get the new message. I have tested this using Outlook 2007 and Thunderbird 2.0 The feed can be accessed from http://swweb.frih.net/LDBSA/snookertables.xml I've done a search on here, and have spent the last week or searching on google, I'm currently building a webpage up which integrates a forum, i want to put a feed on the home page of the site of the latest topics from the forum. The feed address is: feed://guitarprojectuk.forumotion.com/feed/ and the actual website address is: http://www.guitarprojectuk.com I've tried a few on google, and non seem to work, not sure wether its the feed or something i'm doing, so can somebody help me out? Thanks, Tom. I recently just added an RSS feed to my website, and I was wondering how to update it....Do I have to edit it in Notepad, save it, then upload it again? Also, when you subscribe to an RSS feed on Google, is this "headline" thing supposed to be the most recent story, or is that supposed to be my site name and link to my homepage? I'm very confused, as I added like 10 items to my feed and only 2 show up (one of them taking place of my headline for some reason).......Here's the code: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?> <rss version="2.0"> <channel> <title>Celtics Insider</title> <link>http://celticsinsider.webs.com</link> <description>Your #1 Source For Anything And Everything Boston Celtics and NBA!</description> <language>en-us</language> <copyright>Celtics Insider</copyright> <item> <title>This Is Our House</title> <link>http://celticsinsider.webs.com/05February2010.html</link> <description>Eddie House's heroics, coupled with a late defensive surge, helped avoid a loss to the last-place New Jersey Nets.</description> </item> <item> <title>Allen's Key Steal Jump-Starts C's</title> <link>http://celticsinsider.webs.com/03February2010.html</link> <description>The Pierce-less Celtics were too much for Dwayne Wade's Miami Heat.

I currently use a news feed widget from BlastCasta.com on a website for a leading gymnast, however i notice sometimes the news feed covers stories about someone with the same name (ie, they are not relevent to the gymnast at all!) Is there any way at all of using something else/something better? I am completely ignorant when it comes to News feeds/widgets and how to implement them. Any advice would be fantastic. See the current news feed page at http://www.bethtweddle.com/news.html At my current job, i send out html newsletters to subscribers.It has around 8 headings with a brief summary of each.(legal mostly).I have uploaded the newsletter as a webpage on the local website. Now i wanted to create an rss feeds but dont really feel like ive to do more coding to make it rss ready. I read that you have add start item,start desciptions to all headings etc etc. from this site http://www.wotzwot.com/example1.htm Does the above site mean that all rss reader all over go by those rules? IGNORE Is there a way i can create an rss feed.I tried many sites and they do generate the feed but putting it on the webpage to show up doesnt really work nicely. I tried wigitze and currently using rss2html http://rss.budgetwebdesign.org/ website to convert it to html format for better embedding.I have a few legal sites with rss feeds and most of them are in xml format. It;s a lot of work just getting the newsletter to where it is and more work to code it too xml etc. IGNORE One question i have is that, unlike news rss feeds, mine doesnt link up to each heading instead just to the whole html newsletter page on the site. Is there a jumplink involved to that specific heading etc.(i know more coding will be involved but it will be great to have ti that way) Any advice on how to go about this. thanks |
