Winnipeg Sun
Is it possible for Calibre to pull down a mobile site rather than rss feeds? For local Winnipeg Canada news all the rss feeds I can find have only one line of text, hardly worth reading. The Winnipeg Sun has a mobile version that will let me see the whole articles. I did some experimenting and looked at the recipe guides but I've not had any luck. The ultimate destination of the news is my Kobo

To all the good folks in Winnipeg, here is the recipe for Winnipeg Sun.
@plaid: The RSS feeds are used only to pull down the full artilces. |

No there are no table tags since you already took it out with the code, but for some reason it is still doing some sort of formatting where it draws a frame and places the image inside it. When I open the html in mozialla you can see the frame. In the epub viewer within calibre it shows the cartoon clipped on the right like you say, but because it has a scroll bar at the bottom you can scroll and see the rest of the cartoon. The nook does not have such scroll bar so it crops the image as shown by the pic i posted (and deletes the rest?). I just dont know how to get rid of that extra space on the left. I do not experience this problem with other cartoon feeds like Dilbert or comics.com even though I pasted in the rotate code to rotate them. Last edited by nook.life; 06-28-2010 at 07:38 PM. |

Recipe request: Akihabara news
Hi all,
I just recently discovered Calibre and the feature to get news. Unfortunately, I'm not very good at Phyton or HTML/CSS so I haven't been successful in my attempts to customize the recipes to get the news I want. Would it be possible for someone with knowledge to write a recipe for akihabara news (http://en.akihabaranews.com/feed) Lots of thanks in advance! /Anders |

I don't have a nook, but try this: Paste this into the recipe after the rotate code (after pw.DestroyMagickWand(img)), and inside the postprocess_html code: Code:
for divtag in soup.findAll('div'): del(divtag['style']) |

Foreign Policy
Did a recipe for Foreign Policy (http://www.foreignpolicy.com/) ever come out? It's been mentioned a couple of times in this thread, with an unsuccessful attempt here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=616.
If not, would anybody like to try their hand at it? RSS feed is available here: http://www.foreignpolicy.com/node/feed |
