RSS Feed javascript

**Sinopa** · 02-17-2010, 08:54 AM

Does anyone know if there is a way to get this script to show the entire feed including images?

Code:

  <head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=MYKEY"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">

    google.load("feeds", "1");

    function initialize() {
      var feed = new google.feeds.Feed("http://thedosblogger.blogspot.com/atom.xml");
      feed.load(function(result) {
        if (!result.error) {
          var container = document.getElementById("feed");
          for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
            var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
            var div = document.createElement("div");
            div.appendChild(document.createTextNode(entry.title));
            container.appendChild(div);
          }
        }
      });
    }
    google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);

    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="feed"></div>
  </body>

Well the best thing to do would be to read the Google Feeds documentation...

http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeed...reference.html

Code:

function initialize() {
      var feed = new google.feeds.Feed("http://thedosblogger.blogspot.com/atom.xml");
      feed.load(function(result) {
        if (!result.error) {
          var container = document.getElementById("feed");
          for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
            var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
            var div = document.createElement("div");
			var content=document.createElement("div");
			content.innerHTML=entry.content
            div.appendChild(content);
            container.appendChild(div);
          }
        }
      });
    }

It did and I tried a lot of things, but most of it was greek to me

Thank you for your help rdoyle720

Hmmm... How do I add title and publishedDate to that? Now it only shows content.
I looked at another script example and there it shows

Code:

var attributes = ["title", "content", "publishedDate"];

Is there a way to add that to the script?

**rdoyle720** · 02-17-2010, 11:57 AM

Yep, each item is an entry, and it's showing the content by getting entry.content. So to get the title, you'd get entry.title and entry.publishedDate.

Code:

 function initialize() {
      var feed = new google.feeds.Feed("http://thedosblogger.blogspot.com/atom.xml");
      feed.load(function(result) {
        if (!result.error) {
          var container = document.getElementById("feed");
          for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
            var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
            var div = document.createElement("div");
			var content=document.createElement("div");
			content.innerHTML=entry.title+"<br>"+entry.publishedDate+"<br>"+entry.content
            div.appendChild(content);
            container.appendChild(div);
          }
        }
      });
    }

Aha! I think I'm starting to understand and it's wasn't as hard as I thought it was. All I neded was to add ""+ +""

Thank you so much rdoyle720. You have really helped me out

Been working on this problem since yesterday

**Sinopa** · 02-17-2010, 12:59 PM

Can anyone explane to me how it comes that it only shows the first four entries? It doesn't show the entire rss feed. That was kinda strange

**rdoyle720** · 02-17-2010, 01:23 PM

From the page linked above: "By default, the FeedControl class loads 4 entries from each feed." It's likely for performance so it doesn't load a billion entries.

Code:

    function initialize() {
      var feed = new google.feeds.Feed("http://thedosblogger.blogspot.com/atom.xml");
 	feed.setNumEntries(10); // change this number to whatever you want
      feed.load(function(result) {
        if (!result.error) {
          var container = document.getElementById("feed");
          for (var i = 0; i < result.feed.entries.length; i++) {
            var entry = result.feed.entries[i];
            var div = document.createElement("div");
			var content=document.createElement("div");
			content.innerHTML=entry.title+"<br>"+entry.publishedDate+"<br>"+entry.content
            div.appendChild(content);
            container.appendChild(div);
          }
        }
      });
    }

You're a genius rdoyle720

**Mangerpola** · 02-20-2010, 02:53 AM

webpage to help me create a ticker style rss feed that keeps flicking through the feeds. It uses Javascript. If you know a bit about both ... pass a little html in the description. your feeds are rss 2.0.... old as far as standards..

Thanks
