Hi again!

Does anybody know how can I embed an RSS feed within a tiddler, so
that, in the ViewMode, the content of the tiddler, is the content
feeded by the RSS?

I have been looking here http://widgets.tiddlyspot.com/, but there are
no Widgets under the category RSS.

Many thanks. I

Hi Iggy

You could use an iframe:
<html><div align="center"><iframe src="http://YourSite.tiddlyspot.com/
index.xml" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="600"></iframe></div></
html>
Unless ofcourse you want the actual text content to be inserted into
the tiddler/TW.. but on the other hand - why should you want to do
that? - The RSS-feed is just an xml-document output of the changes you
have made to the TW - and a better view of that is already avialable
from the timeline ...

regards Måns Mårtensson

Thanks Mans - I'd like to insert the entries of an RSS feed from
another website (e.g. my wordpress blog), not from my TW. Is it
possible to make this integration without an iframe, in a way that has
the same look and feel as the TW?

Thanks.

hi iggy,

try with RSSReaderPlugin, "this plugin provides a RSSReader for
TiddlyWiki":
http://plugins.tiddlywiki.org/plugins/191/RSSReaderPlugin/

here is an implementation:

hope this helps

An other option would be Bram Chen's XMLReader2:

As for...

http://widgets.tiddlyspot.com/

I have not beein doing anything on that for a veeeeery long
time ...maintenance:failure.
So it never got to be the resourceful wiki it could have been (I also
never promoted the idea enough ...mhhh).
But if anyone's willing to give feed back on solutions, I am well
willing to put them in there.

There is a contact form for you to do so:
http://widgets.tiddlyspot.com/#[[contact%20form]]

If tiddlywiki.org allowed for embedded tiddlywikis (or tiddlers) for
demonstration purposes it were a much better place for any of that
anyways.
Actually, that would be a really great thing... to cook a tiddlywiki
in tiddlywiki.org from template(s),
loading example tiddlers associated to the wikipage on demand.

Tobias.

Hi Iggy,

If you point that iframe to the rss.xml file created by your blogger
site... you can very well use it.

Tobias.

Thanks everybody. The iframe works perfect, and integrates very well
with "scrollbar=no"

Best. I
