I have a simple rss reader that I am using to embed rss feeds from yahoo and others into a website. I need a coder who is well versed in vbscript specifically with asp or asp.net to provide some enhancements to the current generic script, OR provide a custom rss reader script. This will be used to embed rss feeds info into a seperate for display in a webpage. ## Deliverables Provide an RSS reader asp script that will allow me to embed feed inormation into a web page. The RSS reader script should have the following features: 1. specify URL of feed 1. The ability to cache the rss feed and specify the frequency for caching in days. Id probaly want to refresh once a day, so cache once a day. Also the ability to turn this feature off. 2. a method to replace the rss link for each line with a custom link. 3. a method to not only specify the number of titles to display, but the range. So for example, if an RSS feed has a total of 20 line titles I can say show 5, OR overide that and specify the range specific lines to display "6,7,8,9,10". **DIV CONTENT** I also attached an image file to provide an example of how the the rss info will be displayed. The following is an example of the structure of the div info: <div class="leftcolumn"> <a href="#">Little Athens</a><br /> <a href="#">Chasing Christmas</a><br /> <a href="#">Shadow Boxer</a><br /> <a href="#">Strangers With Candy</a><br /> <a href="#">Lassie</a> </div> <div class="rightcolumn"> <a href="#">Little Athens</a><br /> <a href="#">Chasing Christmas</a><br /> <a href="#">Shadow Boxer</a><br /> <a href="#">Strangers With Candy</a><br /> <a href="#">Lassie</a> </div> **ASP SCRIPT **<% Option Explicit %> <% Sub getXML(sourceFile) dim styleFile dim source, style styleFile = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]") set source = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]") [login to view URL] = false [login to view URL] "ServerHTTPRequest", true [login to view URL] CStr(sourceFile) set style = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]") [login to view URL] = false [login to view URL] styleFile [login to view URL] style, Response set source = nothing set style = nothing End Sub ' Replace the link to the correct one Call getXML("<[login to view URL]>") %> <% Option Explicit %> <% Sub getXML(sourceFile)      dim styleFile      dim source, style      styleFile = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]")      set source = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]")      [login to view URL] = false      [login to view URL] "ServerHTTPRequest", true      [login to view URL] CStr(sourceFile)      set style = [login to view URL]("[login to view URL]")      [login to view URL] = false      [login to view URL] styleFile      [login to view URL] style, Response      set source = nothing      set style = nothing End Sub ' Replace the link to the correct one Call getXML("<[login to view URL]>") %> **XSL FILE **<?xml version="1.0" ?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="<[login to view URL]>"> <xsl:output method="xml" encoding="iso-8859-1" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="*"> <table border="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr> <td valign="top" align="center" bgcolor="white"> Link </td> </tr> <xsl:for-each select="//*[local-name()='item']"> <tr> <td valign="top" bgcolor="white"> <a> <xsl:attribute name="href"> <xsl:value-of select="*[local-name()='link']"/> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="target"> <xsl:text>top</xsl:text> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:value-of select="*[local-name()='title']" disable-output-escaping="yes"/> </a> </td> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </table> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> ## Platform We are running on IIS web server 5.0 on Windows 2000 SP3. classic asp is fine.
