why do i need an rss reader?

Well, if you want the be able to read news from the RSS feed you need a RSS reader, or if you want to read plain XML you don't. Or you can read the news with your browser using the normal frontpage, but you can also read plain HTML by using telnet. The choice is completly yours...

I'll ask about putting in a donation link ;)

I set it at 10 because that's what I've seen as the standard on other RSS feeds. My RSS client keeps up to 30 news items (more if I configure it) "cached" so I can see more, though I do see your point when there are big news days. I'll ask about 15 being the default, as that's usually more than enough if you keep your news reader open.

Very nice :)

Ditto that too...lolz...Although would it be possible to have the appropriate titles of the RSS feeds in the title part of the XML Files instead of it just saying ?Neowin?. It looks kind of weird with to Neowin RSS Feeds back to back with the same title. lolz

Hey,

Can you please make them all Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional?

Only problem is the darn Ampersands (&) in the URL.

Like always. :p

BTW its a simple fix.

Just replace all the Ampersands (&) with "&amp". :)

Pretty sure thats all the problem is.

If not anyknow how I can fix the problem myself?

Thanks,

Will

You sure. I thought XHTML is a XML vocabulary?

Mean that XHTML is written in XML.

See:

http://www.webreference.com/xml/reference/xhtml.html

And:

http://academ.hvcc.edu/~kantopet/xhtml/ind...t=what+is+xhtml

So think your wrong buddy. ;)

Well how do I get it to dislpay in correct form then?

See what I mean:

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%...com%2Fdrupal%2F

Like maybe convert from XML to XHTML some how. Displaying it anyways.

After getting the feed?

Normal humans aren't meant to see the rss code, rss feed programs process the rss code to display it.

Well ok thats disapointing since all other rss feeds I have tired work pefectly fine and are all valid XHTML as well as valid XML. So there must be a simple way to fix it?

Well if not then is there a way I can re-ecode per say so that it displays valid XHTML?

I only displays links so dont know.

Anyways also see:

      Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • DuRoBo Krono Review: Portable E-Ink reader with great ideas that need a bit of improvement

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • what other retro software do yall use

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
