Seriously, I got tired of trying to figure out how to get the news I wanted on my site that provided the whole story and not just a description or a feed that was nothing more than a ?disguised ad? for another site, so I located a Google Map Reader, acquired permission to use the program and wrote a ?modification for vb.?

Files to edit: 0
Queries to run: 0
Uses Product: Yes
Template Edits: 1

Testing:
I have tested this on 3.5.x and 3.6.x and it works fine on both. 3.5.x users follow this link:

VbGoogleNews 3.5.X version 1.0.2


What this program does:
This is a Google Map with interactive pins on each continent. Access is gained via the navbar.

Usage:
Select the location on the map that you?d like by dragging mouse, click on pin until you locate the exact country, region, local area you desire and the news will appear. Click on article and a new window will display story; members never leave your site.


Changelog
v1.0.1 working version
v1.0.2 two minor modifications to adjust width



Since the Reader and RSS Feeds is remotely hosted and they do the upgrades, I can?t think of any improvements necessary, but feel free to make suggestions and/or provide file(s), translate to another language, whatever!

Thanks for pointing those out. I have uploaded a fix for these issues and updated the files for new installs.

Using v3.6.4 of VBBS with v1.0.2 ....

When importing XML file, I get:

XML Error: XML_WAR_UNKNOWN_VERSION at Line 72

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Badger

Edit: In an effort to see if I could find out what's wrong with importing Line 72, I simply tried to open the XML with IE as I've done with many others. When I do that, it says:

The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

Beautiful mod ! Works perfect with main forum which is installed in a sub-directory.
How to make it work from VBA which is at root?

lefthome ...

Quick question....

What do I add where, to get it to open a NEW page instead of opening and replacing the current page?

Thanks

Regards,
Badger
