Fark Channel

Tim Neal · 01-12-2004, 03:20 PM

I would like to add Fark to my mobil channels. The only information I can read on my Tungsten T are are the icons from various sources. When I select the Icon, all I receive are the various links and no real text. I can select the page number, and I can read forum posts and I get the message in large font. Don't interpret HTML (no images/Links) Reverse comment order. Is this the only information I can get from fark, or is my set up missing something. If you can help me please contact me a jeetneal@aol.com. Thanks

Tim,

Fark.com does not provide the actual full article. If you go its mobile-optimized page, you'll notice that a click on each icon leads to the external page the fark topic is referring to. Problem here is that these external pages are not mobile-optimized; not only would it take a very long time for iSiloX to download each of these external pages, but also the result in iSilo on your PDA wouldn't be very pretty. If you want to try yourself, go in iSiloX to the Fark channel properties -> Links -> Url Filters -> and remove everything there (the 1 exclusion filter and the 3 inclusion filters).
