Hi WFDevConsultant,

I am following up with you regarding your question about RSS feeds.

I searched on the TechSupport site and found the following:

This is possible if the site whose feed you wish to read supports RSS feeds
using Javascript. You would need to create an html page in Managed Reporting
(MR) or take an existing html page in MR, and add the javascript that will
read the RSS feed to the html page. Example:

Adding these 3 lines to an html file and viewing it in a browser will show you
the first 10 RSS feeds from about.com.

 <script language="JavaScript" src="http://z.about.com/6/js/b.txt?s=javascript">   

  </script> 

 <script>ShowHeadlines(10)</script> 


Once the javascript is added to the html page, the html page can be added to a
launch block. The RSS feed will then be displayed in the launch block.


On the Focal Point Forum:
Create XML file

Hopefully, either of the above will provide some assistance with what you are trying to do. Let us know how you make out with this and share with the rest of the members.

Kindest regards,

You can able to display the RSS feed using WebFocus but not the google news link. When we try the RSS feed everything worked good.

Thanks all for your inputs.
