Adding an RSS Feeds Component<br />

608<br />

You do not have to make any modifications directly to these scripts but you<br />

will need to know their location. An absolute URL contains the entire Web<br />

path to the page or it contains a Web path that starts from the site root.<br />

Example of an entire Web path to a page is “http://www.site.com/folder1/<br />

page.html and an example of a Web path that starts from the site root is “/<br />

folder1/page.html”. Both links will work from any page from the site, and it<br />

doesn’t matter under how many folders the page is located relative to the<br />

site root.<br />

A relative path contains a Web path that is relative to the page where it is<br />

called from.<br />

For example, “../scripts/page.php” will work only if the link is called from a<br />

page located in the folder that is on the same level with scripts folder.<br />

The default location is ./scripts/xmlfetch.php or if you are using ASP, ./<br />

scripts/xmlfetch.asp and this indicates that the RSS Feeds component is<br />

located on the Home page.<br />

If the RSS Feeds component is located on another page than the Home page, the<br />

path would be: ../scripts/xmlfetch.php. In both cases you can use the absolute<br />

path. For example, if you publish your website on a hosting platform that<br />

supports PHP without creating a separate site folder, the path to type in the text<br />

box would be: http://www.yourdomain.com/scripts/xmlfetch.php. Substitute<br />

yourdomain.com for your actual live domain name.<br />

Note: Server Script displays either ASP or PHP, depending on<br />

settings from the General tab of the Current Site Options<br />

dialog. The default xml fetch script for the language type<br />

will be uploaded to your Web server. The script will parse<br />

the .xml data to your website.<br />

4. Customize the appearance of the news feeds on your site by setting the<br />

following options in the Layout fieldset:<br />

• Template. In the drop-down list, select the manner in which the feed<br />

information will be displayed:<br />

• RSS List presents the information in a list-like manner.<br />

• RSS Tree presents the information in a tree-like manner, which allows<br />

you expand the items and follow the links.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
