Yahoo Groups

Hi!

It's easy to do it. Just need this:
http://login.yahoo.com/config/login?&.done=<your_Yahoo_group>?expand=1&login=<us ername>&passwd=<password>

To get the messages of my favorite YahooGroup, I change:

<your_Yahoo_group> for http://mx.groups.yahoo.com/group/palm-yucatan/messages/

The "?expand=1" let you see all message contents in one step.

<username> for your YahooAccount login
<password> for your YahooAccount password

as easy as that...

In iSiloX do the following fine tune to the channel:
Links=1
DONT follow off-site links
CHECK Unfold full page top level tables
CHECK Ignore pixel width specifications

Then in iSilo (palm), you will need this also:
Display Options:
- Font small/absolute
- Disable all layout

and that's all.

That is a nice one, Montalvo! It deserves a new link in the New Links section.

Hope to see you around more,
Alex

I tried this with a few of the groups I read. The conversion didn't come out quite right. The text in the converted document ends up over flowing horizontally on the screen without any way to scroll over to read the rest of the material. Changing with some of the table settings doesn't seem to fix the issue. By any change did you do something in the text options that made the conversion work?

Okay, I got it working now. I just didn't set the font to absolute.
