We now have a standard RSS/XML/RDF feed for your use.

It is located here:

http://www.security-forums.com/forum/rdf.php

There is a Windows viewer here:

http://www.headlineviewer.com/

Mac Viewer:

http://ranchero.com/software/netnewswire/

X-platform:

http://www.disobey.com/amphetadesk/

More here: http://blogspace.com/rss/readers

You can use it on your web site with any php/asp/jsp XML feed module.

An example of it in use is here:

http://www.securityflaw.com/

It only pulls technical articles, no general chat and off-topic stuff.

You can also use it in Trillian Pro if you have the news feed plugin:

File - Preferences - News - Add Custom Feed

Fill in the details as below:



Then click Add - Ok

The feed will show up as below:

Oi, I was testing it Very Happy

And now I'm satisfied it works I've released it to the public, that's what us professionals do Rottz..not that you would know Rolling Eyes Laughing Rolling Eyes

Is anyone using it now?

I find it particularly useful for keeping up to date with what is moving.

Great!

The location can be used with the KDE program ``KNewsTicker'', too. Just add the URL and it'll start picking up news-items...

I was actually asking if anyone has source code I can use rather then an example of it. It seems the only script I found uses some XML object that is not found on my web server.

Thanks,

<?php
class RSSParser {

   var $insideitem = false;
   var $tag = "";
   var $title = "";
   var $description = "";
   var $link = "";

   function startElement($parser, $tagName, $attrs) {
      if ($this->insideitem) {
         $this->tag = $tagName;
      } elseif ($tagName == "ITEM") {
         $this->insideitem = true;
      }
   }

   function endElement($parser, $tagName) {
      if ($tagName == "ITEM") {
         printf("<dt><b><a href='%s' target='_blank'>%s</a></b></dt>",
            trim($this->link),htmlspecialchars(trim($this->title)));
         printf("<dd>%s</dd>",htmlspecialchars(trim($this->description)));
         $this->title = "";
         $this->description = "";
         $this->link = "";
         $this->insideitem = false;
      }
   }

   function characterData($parser, $data) {
      if ($this->insideitem) {
      switch ($this->tag) {
         case "TITLE":
         $this->title .= $data;
         break;
         case "DESCRIPTION":
         $this->description .= $data;
         break;
         case "LINK":
         $this->link .= $data;
         break;
      }
      }
   }
}

$xml_parser = xml_parser_create();
$rss_parser = new RSSParser();
xml_set_object($xml_parser,&$rss_parser);
xml_set_element_handler($xml_parser, "startElement", "endElement");
xml_set_character_data_handler($xml_parser, "characterData");
$fp = fopen("http://www.security-forums.com/forum/rdf.php","r")
   or die("Error reading RSS data.");
while ($data = fread($fp, 4096))
   xml_parse($xml_parser, $data, feof($fp))
      or die(sprintf("XML error: %s at line %d",
         xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xml_parser)),
         xml_get_current_line_number($xml_parser)));
fclose($fp);
xml_parser_free($xml_parser);
?>

I've looked everywhere, and can't seem to find a good place to start. I'd like to add feeds from CERT, etc using ASP.

Thanks! Hello! Waving!
