Hi Felipe,

In case you don't want to start using the rss feed, you can find
updated NYT scripts in the showcase jxl folder of the most recent
jpluckx download (2.1.6b, I think)...

best regards,

tom

Thanx, I saw that.

Was confused bt "feed." What is the diff between site
and feed?


A site is written in HTML and may offer graphics, video, Flash, ActiveX ...
the works.

A feed is written in XML using a fairly narrowly defined framework -
needless to say, there are different standards, such as RSS and Atom - and
is a _distillation_ of the site. It only contains plain text, but may point
to pages on the site or other content through hyperlinks.

The much-quoted "short definition" of RSS is here:

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/12/18/dive-into-xml.html

That the NYT is offering RSS feeds is great - it has been persistently
problematic, changing site format regularly and so on, and now there should
be consistency.
