Syndications Feed
RSS Feed: Now you can have new links added directly to your site using RSS feeds.
Why should I do this?
- You will always have the top quality links shown on your page without worrying about updating them
- You will automatically be better ranked in this directory in case you left reciprocal link during the submission of your site*
*Reciprocal link must be pointed out on the page where you are placing our script for displaying links from this category.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi?key=YOUR-API-KEY">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="gfeedfetcher.js">

<style type="text/css">
.labelfield{ /*CSS for label field in general*/
color:brown;
font-size: 90%;
}
.datefield{ /*CSS for date field in general*/
color:gray;
font-size: 90%;
}
#example1 li{ /*CSS specific*/

</style>
IMPORTANT: Notice the "YOUR-API-KEY" portion at the very top of the code. You need to replace that with your free Google API Key. Go to this page and enter your site's domain (aka the domain you wish to display this script on). A key that is super-long is generated. Replace "YOUR-API-KEY" with this key! The generate key will work on any page within the specified domain. If you need to use this script on another domain, generate another key.
Step 2: Download the below .js file and image, which are also referenced by the code above, and upload to your site:
- gfeedfetcher.js (right click and choose "Save As")
(right click and choose "Save As")
Step 3: Finally, to display the desired RSS feeds, just add the below sample HTML to your page, which illustrates links in subcategory "Tehniques" under category "Astrophotography and sketches":
<script type="text/javascript">
var cssfeed=new gfeedfetcher("example1", "example1class", "")
cssfeed.addFeed("Astronomy-links.org", "http://www.astronomy-links.org/astrophotographyandsketches/astrophotographyandsketches_tehniques.rss") //Specify "label" plus URL to RSS feed
cssfeed.displayoptions("") //show the specified additional fields
cssfeed.setentrycontainer("li") //Display each entry as a list (li element)
cssfeed.filterfeed(10, "title") //Show 10 entries, sort by title. Leave blank for sort by rank
cssfeed.init() //Always call this last
</script>
How can I find out URL to RSS feed?
Go to the category (or subcategory) that you want to show on your page. Look out for the "RSS 2.0 feed" sign under the "META" category in the right menu! Link on that sign points to the desired category (as http://www.astronomy-links.org/ astrophotographyandsketches/ astrophotographyandsketches_ tehniques.rss in upper example)!
Scripts like these are called "Ajax RSS ticker" so search the Internet for other examples. For example, http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/
