Morning All,
I am trying to write a small windows app to keep track of a couple of
blogs. The blogs I want to look at are available as RSS feeds through
a static URL.
A typical feed will look something like this.
<rss version='2.0'>
<channel>

<description>BlogSite description</description>
<link>http://www.example.com</link>
<title>BlogSite Title</title>
<item>
<title>1st Article</title>
<pubDate>2004-07-18 13:47:45</pubDate>
<link>http://www.example.com/bloggers.php?id=365</link>
<description>Synopsis of the article here.</description>

<description>Synopsis of the article here.</description>
</item>
....more items...
</channel>
</rss>
What I would like to be able to do is display the BlogSite description
as the form title, show the site description in a label control, and
display the copyright info at the bottom of the form.
I am guessing I will be able to cope with reading the items into some
dis[play format once I sort out the title issues.
Any help that anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In Advance
Marc.
