Example 6
RSS example.
Return home
This example is a more real-world example. It retrieves an RSS feed from one
of three user-selected sources, parses the feed and displays the headlines
in clickable form. This demonstrates retrieving XML from a server and
dealing with it on the client.
Note that the RSS feed XML is actually stored as files within this
webapp. That is because some browsers will not allow you to retrieve
content with XMLHttpRequest outside the domain of the document trying to
do the call. Some browsers will allow it with a warning though.
