Is there a utility that converts RSS feeds to text, HTML or PDF files?
I'm looking for a way to cache a copy of The Economist (under subscription) to an ebook reader. The utility will have to be able to get the HTML links the feed provides, plus login to the website to get the content.
The feed is: http://www.pheedo.com/f/theeconomistprintedition
Try this site: http://www.rssfeedconverter.com/
RssFeedConverter.com should convert any valid RSS feed into Javascript, HTML or PHP code.
Thanks.
Not quite what I needed. The economist needs special cookie handing for login and the RSS feed has very little data - I need to mine the links.
In any case, I wrote my own python code for it so no need for more sites.
I wrote a custom python script. If anyone wants it, let me know.
i want to know the method. Would you tell me ?
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Economist to ebook reader, great minds think alike. Could you please send me that script? What format does is output for the reader? txt would be ideal for me but I'll take whatever you made! :)
Hi,
Could you please send me the script?
Thanks,
Fahad

It sounds like you want to display an RSS feed within your HTML website. The easiest/best way to do this is to use RSS2HTML a free PHP script. This means that you can retain the complete control of the HTML layout (using templates) and make it match your existing design. Additionally using PHP rather than JavaScript will mean that search engine spiders can "spider" the contents of the RSS feeds. Additional details and a free rss2html download is available at: http://www.feedforall.com/more-php.htm Additional information and other options for displaying RSS feeds can be found at: http://www.rss-specifications.com/displaying-rss-feeds.htm Goodluck!
