There ususally are... > :-) Lol - I probably get into trouble for writing this but the biggest issue in getting you guys some RSS feeds from the jobs site is that the entire site runs on a Windows based CMS. Our official hosting option is *nix based servers, but the people who run the jobs site don't work in BBC New Media & Technology... So when they went to commission the job site it appears they didn't ask anyone what OS/languages the contractors should program the job CMS in. The biggest headache, therefore, is finding the resource to make this happen. We don't have ASP coders as we don't (normally) do windows for web serving and so I'm trying to sort something out with an external contractor at the moment. Anyway I'm telling you all this because I think it's a good example of why we aren't always as forthcoming with stuff as you might expect. A lot of these kind of unforeseen issues usually seem to crop up! I'll let you know where we are with this when I get back from my travels. Ben > > Could try badgering Jem. Jem?
