RSS Document Example

What is RSS?

• RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication
• RSS allows you to syndicate your site content
• RSS defines an easy way to share and view headlines and content
• RSS files can be automatically updated
• RSS allows personalized views for different sites
• RSS is written in XML

Why use RSS?

RSS was designed to show selected data.

Without RSS, users will have to check your site daily for new updates. This may be too time-consuming for many users. With an RSS feed (RSS is often called a News feed or RSS feed) they can check your site faster using an RSS aggregator (a site or program that gathers and sorts out RSS feeds).

Since RSS data is small and fast-loading, it can easily be used with services like cell phones or PDA's.

Web-rings with similar information can easily share data on their web sites to make them better and more useful.

Who Should use RSS?

Webmasters who seldom update their web sites do not need RSS!

RSS is useful for web sites that are updated frequently, like:

• News sites - Lists news with title, date and descriptions
• Companies - Lists news and new products
• Calendars - Lists upcoming events and important days
• Site changes - Lists changed pages or new pages

Benefits of RSS

Here are some benefits of using RSS:

Choose your news
With RSS you can choose to view the news you want, the news that interest you and are relevant to your work.

Remove unwanted information
With RSS you can (finally) separate wanted information from unwanted information (spam)!

Increase your site traffic
With RSS you can create your own news channel, and publish it to the Internet!

The History of RSS

• 1997 - Dave Winer at UserLand develops scriptingNews. RSS was born
• 1999 - Netscape develops RSS 0.90 (which supported scriptingNews)
• 1999 - Dave Winer develops scriptingNews 2.0b1 (which included RSS 0.90 features)
• 1999 - Netscape develops RSS 0.91 (which included most features from scriptingNews 2.0b1)
• 1999 - UserLand gets rid of scriptingNews and uses only RSS 0.91
• 1999 - Netscape stops their RSS development
• 2000 - UserLand releases the official RSS 0.91 specification
• 2000 - O'Reilly develops RSS 1.0. This format uses RDF and namespaces.
• 2000 - Dave Winer at UserLand develops RSS 0.92
• 2002 - Dave Winer develops RSS 2.0 after leaving UserLand
• 2003 - The official RSS 2.0 specification is released

RSS 1.0 is the only version that was developed using the W3C RDF (Resource Description Framework) standard.

The idea behind RDF was to help create a Semantic Web. However, this does not matter too much for ordinary users, but by using web standards it will be easier for persons and applications to exchange data.

What RSS Version Should I Use?

RSS 0.91 and RSS 2.0 are easier to understand than RSS 1.0. Our tutorial is based on RSS 2.0.

The syntax rules of RSS 2.0 are very simple and very strict.

Is RSS a Web Standard?

There is no official standard for RSS.

• About 50 % of all RSS feeds use RSS 0.91
• About 25 % use RSS 1.0
• The last 25 % is split between RSS 0.9x versions and RSS 2.0

How RSS Works

RSS is used to share content between websites.

With RSS, you register your content with companies called aggregators.

So, to be a part of it: First, create an RSS document and save it with an .xml extension. Then, upload the file to your website. Next, register with an RSS aggregator. Each day the aggregator searches the registered websites for RSS documents, verifies the link, and displays information about the feed so clients can link to documents that interests them.

Tip: Read our RSS Publishing chapter to view free RSS aggregation services.

RSS Example

RSS documents use a self-describing and simple syntax.

Here is a simple RSS document:

The first line in the document - the XML declaration - defines the XML version and the character encoding used in the document. In this case the document conforms to the 1.0 specification of XML and uses the UTF-8 character set.

The next line is the RSS declaration which identifies that this is an RSS document (in this case, RSS version 2.0).

The next line contains the element. This element is used to describe the RSS feed.

The element has three required child elements:

• - Defines the title of the channel (e.g. W3Schools Home Page)</li><li><link> - Defines the hyperlink to the channel (e.g. https://www.w3schools.com)</li><li><description> - Describes the channel (e.g. Free web building tutorials)</li></ul><p>Each <channel> element can have one or more <item> elements.</p><p>Each <item> element defines an article or 'story' in the RSS feed.</p><p>The <item> element has three required child elements:</p><ul><li><title> - Defines the title of the item (e.g. RSS Tutorial)</li><li><link> - Defines the hyperlink to the item (e.g. https://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_rss.asp)</li><li><description> - Describes the item (e.g. New RSS tutorial on W3Schools)</li></ul><p>Finally, the two last lines close the <channel> and <rss> elements.</p><h2>Comments in RSS</h2><p>The syntax for writing comments in RSS is similar to that of HTML:</p><h2>RSS is Written in XML</h2><p>Because RSS is XML, keep in mind that:</p><ul><li>All elements must have a closing tag</li><li>Elements are case sensitive</li><li>Elements must be properly nested</li><li>Attribute values must always be quoted</li></ul><h2>The RSS <channel> Element</h2><p>The RSS <channel> element describes the RSS feed.</p><p>Look at the following RSS document:</p><div> <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?><br> <rss version='2.0'><br> <channel><br> <title>W3Schools Home Page

  Free web building tutorials
  
  RSS Tutorial

  As mentioned before, the element describes the RSS feed, and has three required child elements:

  • - Defines the title of the channel (e.g. W3Schools Home Page)</li><li><link> - Defines the hyperlink to the channel (e.g. https://www.w3schools.com)</li><li><description> - Describes the channel (e.g. Free web building tutorials)</li></ul><p>The <channel> element usually contains one or more <item> elements. Each <item> element defines an article or 'story' in the RSS feed.</p><p>Furthermore, there are several optional child elements of <channel>. We will explain the most important ones below.</p><h2>The <category> Element</h2><p>The <category> child element is used to specify a category for your feed.</p><p>The <category> element makes it possible for RSS aggregators to group sites based on category.</p><p>The category for the RSS document above could be:</p><h2>The <copyright> Element</h2><p>The <copyright> child element notifies about copyrighted material.</p><p>The copyright for the RSS document above could be:</p><div> <copyright>2006 Refsnes Data as. All rights reserved.</copyright></div><h2>The <image> Element</h2><p>The <image> child element allows an image to be displayed when aggregators present a feed.</p><p>The <image> element has three required child elements:</p><ul><li><url> - Defines the URL to the image</li><li><title> - Defines the text to display if the image could not be shown</li><li><link> - Defines the hyperlink to the website that offers the channel</li></ul><p>The image for the RSS document above could be:</p><div> <image><br> <url>https://www.w3schools.com/images/logo.gif</url><br> <title>W3Schools.com
    https://www.w3schools.com
    

    The Element

    The child element is used to specify the language used to write your document.

    The element makes it possible for RSS aggregators to group sites based on language.

    The language for the RSS document above could be:

    The Element

    Each element defines an article or 'story' in an RSS feed.

    Look at the following RSS document:
