WCC V1.1.0 converted for Plucker

Alexander Turcic · 02-12-2003, 04:48 AM

For all you Plucker users out there....

I converted the iSiloX Web Channel Collection V1.1.0 so that you can use it with JPluckX. Note that only basic iSiloX settings were converted, including:

Title
Source
Maximum link depth
Follow off-site links
Follow sub folder links
Include images
Include image alt. text
Text colors
Default category

Important
iSilo V3.3 supports RegEx include/exclude pattern. These were *not* converted. Be prepared that some channels won't work with JPluckX (e.g. some BBC channels) without further customization.

I've got rougly 900 pda-sized URLs going into an online system I'm building at http://my.plkr.org soon.

I'll be comparing the sites I have with the WCC sites, to make sure there are no dupes. Once it's up, I'd like the community to maintain the "freshness" of the sites listed and the metadata, as they did for http://openurls.plkr.org/.

I personally do not like the JPluck XML format, it leaves out quite a few attributes, but those will be corrected in time. I use perl to fetch my websites and convert them to Plucker. So far, it's the fastest thing I've seen do it (and the most capable).

Keep up the good work.

Problem viewing images with Plucker & Sunrise

Hi,
Excuse my somewhat newbie question but I am failing time and again to view full images in Plucker. For example I used the link posted on MobileRead for comics:http://www.turcic.com/avantgo/comics.shtml
and specified largest image size as 1000*1000 with 280 colors.
Now when I watch the page with Plucker on my Tungsten T3, images are cut to screen size, and I see no way to scroll through them or anything.
On the other hand I do know that some ducments of mine which have images in them give me the option to see it fully using scrolls when I double click on them.

Does anyone have a clue to what I am doing wrong?
