Title: Yahoo RSS problems
Post by: mamado on November 11, 2003, 02:44:30 PM
Hello,

   I don't know if it is just me   :?  or that the Yahoo rss links doesn't work for any of you too :?:

   The headlines and summary from the today screen work correctly, but when I click on the (view downloaded page) -I don't know what it is called- I get the Yahoo page for "Document Not Found", this happens for all the feeds.

   Here are my rss for reference:

rss,1,60,http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories,Y! Top Stories,10

rss,2,60,http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/world,Y! World,10

rss,3,60,http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/tech,Y! Technology,8

rss,4,60,http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/oddlyenough,Y! Oddly Enough,5

rss,5,60,http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/mostviewed,Y! Most Viewed,6


    For the stock feed

rss,6,20,http://www.xanadb.com/nav.pl?page=etc/templates/quotes.xtpl&cont_type=text/xml&symbols=snps+cdn,Stock,4

I get "Error Please enter a ticker symbol.

Can someone help me please  :cry:

Yea, these RSS feeds don't work for online/offline linking.  In previous versions of the skins I created, I deleted the online/offline links from these feeds (I will be reimplementing this feature in the next versions).

I tested your link for the stock feed in an Internet Explorer window and it worked fine for me.  Have not tested with TodayPlus, but should work as well.

Thank you fishboy for your help, but the problem is as rbg08 described it.
