Hi everyone,
I have written a simple address book plug-in that allows users to display a
web page within a drawer attached to the main application window. This works
fine and is somewhat useful (the program can be freely downloaded from my
site). What I really want to do, beyond seeing a contact´s web page, is to
provide the ability check blogs. However, this isn't as simple since the RSS
feeds need to be parsed manually. I have already done that and it works
great, thanks to the great DOM parser that Mac OS X provides.
My problem lies with rendering the RSS feed. Since the Address Book is an
application developed by Apple it seems to me that users would expect to see
the feeds exactly as they are displayed within Safari. Therefore I decided
to use the CSS and Javascript files used by Safari to render the RSS feed.
This seems to be easier said than done since the Javascript file is kinf of
cryptic to me, even if it has some comments.
So, my question is, has anyone created RSS pages using those files and if
yes, how could I use them to generate my pages?
Thanks in advance,
Huibert Aalbers
