Newsfeed with Selector menu on vbAdvanced CMPS · **Released**: 10-26-2004

Hello Everyone

This little mod, is great if you want to incorporate news feeds into the vbAdvanced CMPS

There is the one Prerequisite: I use the freeware version of carp,
but, if you have another aggregator you can modify this mod to use your own

Carp
http://www.geckotribe.com/rss/carp/

you can download the free version here:
http://www.geckotribe.com/rss/carp/docs/download.php

Install Instructions:
http://www.geckotribe.com/rss/carp/docs/install.php

within the zip file is an instruction.txt file that should explain everything.

Demo:
http://www.tech-unity.com

Update:
updated instruction.txt file in the zip to comment on the carp path

Hey great addon Tom. One question though- my news feed (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/rss/news) displays everything in Times New Roman. Is there a way to change the font and font size so that everything looks "seamless"? My initial thought was that one of the carp files might need to be modified, but I didn't want to mess up what I've got so far. Thanks again for the addon

Sorry bringindaruckus,

I'm sorry for the late reply.

If you have an account over at vbadvanced, someone posted a way for you change fonts and what not, His name is Protoss, so he gets the credit for this. I attached the file

Just change to your feed and test it. Remember to save a copy of your feed file in case you dont like the changes.

I hope it helps

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
