RSS Wizard Example #1
This is an example
of generating a feed from your own page by inserting HTML comments to identify
feed items.
<!-- start feed -->

Comment tags
have been included in the HTML to mark the
start of the feed items, the
start and end of each item, and
the start and end of each item description.
(If pages are generated using a template, these tags can usually be included in
the template.) The choice of wording in the comment tags is entirely your own,
so if there are existing tags in the right place in your pages, you can use
those.
In the RSS Wizard,
type in the following parameters:
HTML File (Step 1 of 5): |
/rss-wizard-examples.htm |
Start String (Step 2 of
5): |
<!-- start feed --> |
Start Item String (Step 2
of 5): |
<!-- start item --> |
End Item String (Step 2 of
5): |
<!-- end item --> |
Start Description String
(Step 2 of 5): |
<!-- start description --> |
End Description String
(Step 2 of 5): |
<!-- end description --> |
Note that in this
example the "Start String" could be left blank, because there are no other
matches on the page to the "Start Item String" and "End Item String". Also, the
"Start Description String" and "End Description String" could also be left
blank, because RSS Wizard will automatically split each item into a Title and
Description based on the page layout.
