My philosophy on JavaScript is: 1 - Use as little as possible 2 - Test on IE and Mozilla 3 - Fix bugs that are reported on other browsers 4 - Try to make the...
Hi Jeff, ... Sounds great, I'll take a "tour" of Syndic8 with the purpose of finding places for improvement, and how to implement these. Regards, Morten...
Jeff, How about adding a checkbox to the login screen that allowed returning to the previous (referring) page? Detect whether the referring page was one on...

In the process of fixing a bug/closing a security hole in the "Go to Feed ID" box, I added a handy little feature. If you enter a Feed ID, then the box behaves...
I've done some work to cache the various boxes on the Syndic8 front page. The page now loads at an incredible speed -- looks like less than one second in most...
Hi All, For the last few days the Syndic8 polls have been running very slowly (4+ hours instead of the usual 1 hour). I have tracked this down to the fact that...
Jeff, Can you just bulk flag the rssengine feeds as not to be polled? How about making some sort of way for editors to quickly get sortable lists of feeds...
Jeff, How about ripping most of that stuff off the front page and relegating it to some secondary pages? The load times on it are just way too slow. And it's...
Problem: RSS validation breaks randomly. Ok so I'm using PHP generate my feeds and to strip tags and encode entities. I have all that in a CDATA section but...

Jeff, How about adding a developer help section? I'd like to see a "one stop page" of links on how to use the various interfaces. Specifically I'd like to see...
Ok so now you're saying that i shouldn't use CDATA at all? I'm not sure where an "­" character came from but it's probably due to the fact that I copy and...
Ok apparently that "o­n" stuff is being genereated by php when I type the word "on" ... I don't get why it's adding chars that aren't there in the...

... Frankly? Yes, you should avoid using CDATA. It doesn't absolve you from as much as you'd think. And it merely shifts responsibility from your output...
... Rip it out. At the very least do a last-pass loop over the text and be *sure* you don't have any HTML entities in it. XML is not HTML and doesn't support...
Ok, So in the interest of making a clean and compatible news feed are there any pointers you can give me on cleaning up my text or transcoding using PHP? are...
Hi Everyone, I have been working to make script-driven links more compatible with a wide range of browsers. As a first step, the list-related links on the...
I don't know how long it's been there, but I found the little orange XML button[1] linked with "What is this?" near the bottom right of News.com (above the...
