Dear Calibre dev's,

First thank you for this useful program,

Here is the RSS feed adress : http://www.techno-science.net/include/news.xml

Best regards,
enzo

[tolyluis]

What do you want, this feed only or the full-content of the page? (there are many feeds available)

[enzo94]

Yes this feed would be a good start

[enzo94]

well in fact when i add this feed using the adress http://www.techno-science.net/include/news.xml in google reader i have the result i would like to see on my kindle, if that helps...

[tolyluis]

Don't care about it....

[tolyluis]

I have it, but with no styles (it looks very ugly ), may any recipe expert give us a lesson on apply styles with no <hn> tags, if it could be done.

Just wait for a little test and I post it.

Thank you fr your help,

enzo94, make sure source web page (www.techno-science.net) is working. Right now the page is down, and last night too. The code works, (tested and re-tested) is not very nice how calibre shows it, but is working, functional and readable.

Maybe it helps to a better display, just change

no_stylesheets        = True

to

no_stylesheets        = False

It looks a little better on K4PC, now the recipe looks:

Dear Mr. Hernandez,
Many, many thanks it is fully working.

Maybe i can ask you some cosmetic improve of this code by adding in someway the title of a feed before the related article.

For now it works fine on my computer i'll tell you how it works on my kindle when i'll have it back.

If i can of any help for the community i'll be glad to contribute, but i'm a really poor programmer, but if that could help i!m in materials chemistry ;-)

Best regards,
enzo

[enzo94]

In fact, when i compare it with the google reader's article, i find the titles so they are in there.

Is it possible to do a line spacing and put the title in bold and add one more line spacing ? This way it will be much more easy to read.

Again it is a cosmetic improvement so if you think that would take you too much time i'll keep it that way ;-)

Just perfectionism ^^

Unfortunately I can't help you, it's not a cuestion of time, it's a cuestion of knowledge. Just I said before, may another people more experimented can help you, I'm just a beginner in this of reciping news. I understand your petition, the ebook looks very ugly, line-spacing the title is required for a comfortable reading.

[enzo94]

Thank you very much anyway,

if someone have the skills to add this feature it would be nice,

have a good day ;-)
