Hi all,
I''m happy to announce that I''ve completed the first version of
my
Ajax.RssReader object. It needs some extra''s, but the basic
functionality is
now available. You can download it from
http://www.sayoutloud.com/javascripts/rssreader.js
Usage:
function myCallbackFunction( rss ) {
alert(rss.channel.title);
for(n=0; n<rss.items.length; n++) {
alert(rss.items[n].title);
}
}
function myErrorHandler( rss ) {
alert( ''An error has occured.'' );
}
new Ajax.RssReader( ''http://www.mysite.com/feed.xml'', {
onSuccess:
myCallbackFunction, onFailure: myErrorHandler } );
Please send me your comments and suggestions.
Best,
Robin

Hi Matt, It is based on the RSS 2.0 specification ( http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss) and should be backward compatible with all previous versions. Currently it does not support Atom feeds, but that''s on my todo list and will be added soon.

Looks good for RSS2.
My only concern is what the code may look like if you need to support
RSS1 / RDF and ATOM ?
It''s probably a contentious area but it seems to me the cleanest way to
do this would be to use a Javascript XSLT implementation (Google or
Sarissa) to parse the specific RSS XML and apply a stylesheet. I guess
the downside of this approach is that XSLT libs consume a bit of
bandwidth...
Well, that''s the view from my ivory tower anyways ;-)

People who develop with the Scriptaculous library will quickly understand and be able to use this class.
