Corrupt File

[rogerbell]

Hello all,

I recently purchased the rss feed news reader in january and I am having problems re-using the component. I have about 8 errors when publishing the swf file to upload to the server. Also the original file that was sent has several errors on publish. Is there any way that I could another copy of the original files so that I could get it working again.

Otherwise I have a problem with the fla or coding on my actions layer, but I have gotten it to work before several times.

I will be able to provide purchase information if needed.



Thanks.

Roger

[EDITED]
This is my flash file that I can't get working. I found the original downloaded file and all I did was put an espn RSS feed in the var RSSurl, but it doesnt load.

My php file is exactly what its suppose to be. I tried to load it from the rss URL instead of the domain but that still doesnt work.

Any help would be appreciated

Hello,
Please do not post links to any of the source files.

1). Please follow these instructions and choose the one that is best for you.
2). If you use the php to get the feed, you need to test it online. It will not work when tested locally
3). If you want me to help you, please post a sample link with a compiled swf (NOT the source files) and describe in a few words what code have you modified.

Hello,

Sorry for posting that link to the source.

Here is the sample SWF file link: (the reader is at the bottom of the page)

Well first, I am having trouble getting any news feeds to load.

I added an espn mlb news feed to the RSSUrl and the xml.load from another domain. From reading that is all I needed to do, and it doesn't seem to be working.

// RSS Feed url
var RSSUrl = "http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/rss/mlb/news";
// get Domain
var urlStr:Array = this._url.split("/");
var domain:String = "";
for (var i = 0; i<urlStr.length-1; i++) {
domain += urlStr[i]+"/";
}
// load xml from another domain
xml.load(domain+"news.php?url="+RSSUrl); // load using php from another domain
// xml.load(RSSUrl); // load from url
//xml.load("news.xml"); // load local file
preloader.lbl_txt.autoSize = true;
preloader.lbl_txt.text = "Loading RSS Feed from "+RSSUrl+".\n Please wait...";

The php file is straight from the source file.

Another thing is that I have several other news readers (the same file) that work and are deployed on the server. I customized the look and color scheme to fit my needs.

If I pull those files down from the server and try to edit them and re-upload them, the new feed doesn't load and the customization / scaling / and preloader I added are lost. It doesn't make any sense really.

So I figured I would start over from scratch and try to get the original file working again, but I am having trouble.

Thanks for trying to help

I've used the code you have pasted and it works fine. You must have modified something else. Take a look here
Also the php retrieving works fine on your server (check out the link in the address bar):
ESPN.com - MLB

There is something wrong with the swf. What other modifications have you made ?

So I am having a problem pulling in a yahoo pipe I have created.

The raw pipe for some reason is not being read by the flash component and therefore I have to use RSSmix.com to re-aggregate a new feed url from it. When i do that it reads fine. Here is my pipe feed below.

http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.ru...17&_render=rss

The reason i want to use the original pipe feed is because sometimes i feel that the rssmix feed, which was re-aggregated, does not load and something with rssmix.com doesnt work, and displaying no feeds in the flash component.

Hope that makes sense. Try putting that feed into a flash file and publishing it, nothing happens for me. Let me know if you have a fix or suggestions. Thanks.

For some reason the pipes feed wasn't loading correctly so I looked at a post from andrew and had to switch the php file and put the raw feed url in a readfile(Geregistreerd door Denit Hosting Solutions).

Thanks for the help anyways.
