Re: RSS Feeds; basic info
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2005
It keeps the original formatting.

texte = We create the files with WRITEFILE - rewriting the XML page each time =20= we update. We then look at the page in a test area first to check for =20= syntax errors; if the page parses correctly, we "publish" it by simply =20= moving it with move file to the public directory. The information is kept in a WebDNA database, and is accessible through =20= regular search and display with a browser for those who do not use a =20 reader. We maintain expiration dates that control when a file is no longer =20 written. Pretty straightforward, once we got past the syntax issues with =20 carraige returns and odd characters.
