Hello, My ROME / JDOM application was used to grab the individual URLs of all the entries in an RSS feed. Then, the URLs were given to the application user as a List (as Titles / hyperlinks) along with the entire Description. If the application user was interested in a particular Title s/he could click-on the hyperlink, which activated a browser, and presented the application user with "the details". We wouldn't be able to give the application user the entire Description, but it appears that there is a <description> tag embedded in the Description. We could give the app user this abbreviated description. This model seems more realistic to me than our current use-model. It will be dirty work extracting the particulars of an Event from the <description>. Does anyone else have an opinion on this subject? Best regards, Harry Henriques Java Developer ________________________________ From: Julie Carwellos <jcarwellos@xxxxxxxxx> To: tssg-tech@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, September 23, 2010 3:30:22 PM Subject: [tssg-tech] Re: Parsing BostonEventsList with ROME Harry, this is GREAT!!
