HOWTO: RSS Feeds for UNIX Forums

If you want to submit your favorite UNIX.COM forum to RSS news feeds registries or directories, here is how:

The top level RSS link to the UNIX forums is:

https://www.unix.com/external.php

This is the default for the RSS type, which is:

https://www.unix.com/external.php?type=RSS

(There is also type JS for Java Script and XML)

If you are interested in a specific forum RSS, you can add the forum ID, for example, the main "Dummies" forum ID is 2, so:

https://www.unix.com/external.php?forumids=2

The forum ID can be found in the URL (f=2) for example.

Feel free to submit your favorite UNIX forum to any RSS registry and post back where you submitted our news feed.

Quote:
# Enable External Javascript
This setting allows you to enable/disable the Javascript content syndication system that allows you to embed vBulletin data in HTML pages.

If you set this option to 'yes', you can call it by going to:
https://www.unix.com/external.php?type=js

You could use javascript directly in your html pages to control the returned data.

# Enable RSS Syndication
This setting allows you to enable/disable the RSS content syndication system.

If you set this option to 'yes', you can call it by going to:
https://www.unix.com/external.php?type=rss

(example) There is a news-plugin for Trillian which lets you use RSS feeds to get the latest information posted in your trillian program.

# Enable XML Syndication
This setting allows you to enable/disable the XML content syndication system.

If you set this option to 'yes', you can call it by going to:
https://www.unix.com/external.php?type=xml
Thanks and Have Fun,

Neo

XML::RSS::LibXML::MagicElement(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       XML::RSS::LibXML::MagicElement(3pm)

NAME
XML::RSS::LibXML::MagicElement - Represent A Non-Trivial RSS Element SYNOPSIS
us XML::RS::LibXML::MagicElement; my $xml = XML::RSS::LibXML::MagicElement->new( content => $textContent, attributes => @attributes ); DESCRIPTION
This module is a handy object that allows users to access non-trivial RSS elements in XML::RSS style. For example, suppose you have an RSS feed with an element like the following: <channel> <title>Example</title> <tag attr1="foo" attr2="bar">baz</tag> ... </channel> While it is simple to access the title element like this: $rss->{channel}->{title}; It was slightly non-trivial for the second tag. With this module, <tag> is parsed as a XML::RSS::LibXML::MagicElement object and then you can access all the elements like so: $rss->{channel}->{tag}; # "baz" $rss->{channel}->{tag}->{attr1}; # "foo" $rss->{channel}->{tag}->{attr2}; # "bar" METHODS
new Create a new MagicElement object. attributes Returns the list of attributes associated with this element toString Returns the string representation of this object. By default we use the "text content" of the found tag, but for XML::RSS compatibility, we use the concatenation of the attributes if no content is found. AUTHOR
