Pcmagazine's Dvorak - help!

Kiko · 11-25-2005, 05:15 PM

Here is the deal: I want to download the rss feed for Dvorak's column, but I want only the printable text of the columns. Here is the link:

http://rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com/PCMAG_dvorak

The problem is, the main page of the feed has links to several articles, and each article is divided into two pages (so you read half of the page, then click in a "next page" link to read the rest). It just dont' work well on a Palm, as there are also several non-related links on the page, that take forever to download.

Anyway, what I need is some kind of script that allows Sunrise to download the printable version of the columns. Is there anyone that have already faced this problem or can someone take a look at it?

Thanks,

Kiko

Link gives a 404 Not Found.

Well I found the correct feed and wrote a script for rewriting the links, but the conversion fails due to a parsing problem in Sunrise. Looks like it won't be possible.

Err, sorry about the link. And sorry about my next question: what is a parsing problem?
