Fairly widely known to exist. Although it could have a default rss feed embedded in the default view if [Jutta] ever got bored.
(note: m-f-d removed) |

Can you point me to documentation on that? This is some sort of <link...> tag I could be adding to a page to map a non-RSS page to its RSS equivalent? |
|
|
I've put up the link I found. It looks consistent with the html link definition and slashdot and mozillazine's use of it. |
|
|
The syntax is basically:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Recent Halfbakery posts (RSS)" href="url/to/rss/file">
and it goes inside the <head> </head> tags. Title is up to you, some just have "RSS" but more descriptive is nice if it's easy. href needs to be set properly of course. |
|
|
When done, it makes it easy to bookmark the feed from Firefox. I'm not sure what else supports it. |
|
|
Thanks for the pointer! See if it works roughly as you expected. |
|
|
Yeah! Works great. Thanks! |
|
|
wow - thanks [Jutta], this really is baked now. |
|
|
[neilp], on your mfd call . . . I'd prefer to keep this one around, please. |
|
|
I read that rss is "really simple syndication" but I am not clear what it does for the HB or how people are using it to view the HB. Enlightenment? |
|
|
In Firefox, on an RSS enabled page, I can click on some little orange button in the status bar which will add a bookmark to my, well, bookmarks. The RSS bookmarks will themselves expand to reveal various links therein. |
|
|
For example, I can bookmark my "recent" view, and access 25 or so recent ideas straight from the menu. I can see whether any have been churned to the top without having to load a whole page. |
|
|
This sounds interesting and potentially quite useful. I wish I had the time to learn what it is all about. Anyone got a link to a decent explanation of RSS? |
|

{Linky}
(Wonders if others see this, or if views are pesonal) |
|
|
It worked for me. I now have a "Halfbakery" menu in my browser toolbar. Thanks! [+] |
