[cfaussie] Re: Creating RSS

[Phil McCluskey]

Once you get your RSS creation sorted, I'd strongly recommend creating the RSS feed as a file and letting your web server serve it up rather than trying to serve it dynamically from CF.  Most RSS feed readers will use a conditional GET that checks to see if the file has changed before they try to download it.  If you're serving the feed through CF then it will ignore a conditional GET and serve the file on each request, which can use up much more bandwidth, especially if you're creating RSS 1.0 or RSS 2.0 style feed.   "Taco Fleur" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I have been looking for a module or something for a while now to create RSS syndication files, have not found anything out there. So decided to write one myself, anybody interested in making this a joint-project?   So far I am using cfscript, createObject and the object I'm using is "Microsoft.XMLDOM" it seems to be coming along pretty fine, just would not mind working together with someone with a bit more knowledge on XML.   If something nice comes out it, I would like to post it for people to download, open source of course.   I also have not found any good parsers for that matter..   Anyone?   Taco Fleur --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MX Downunder AsiaPac DevCon - http://mxdu.com/
