I assume you're referring to RSS or ATOM when you say "XML data feeds?" Making this assumption, most feed readers I know of can handle both RSS and ATOM. You just need to make sure you're providing the feed in the proper format for the readers that will be used to consume your feeds. > Is there anything special I need to know about providing xml data feeds > with rails as far as user agents, or browser specific information is > concerned? Will one data feed differ from another in any way? Also there is a way in some browsers (at least Safari) where you can place a meta tag in the head section that will display the RSS button in the address bar. At least that's how I think that feature works. Here is an example form the Apple start page: <link rel="alternate" href="http://images.apple.com/main/rss/hotnews/hotnews.rss"; type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS"> -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
