Playing with Aggregator API
  • using http://www.vcdn.org/Public/XMLRPC/documentation.php
  • Current status
    • Houston, we have liftoff
      • Caveats
        • security restrictions? or vcXMLRCP issues prevent this from working in Mozilla (even from chrome)
          • I had hoped for a cross browser solution
          • will likely switch to Mozilla's xml-rpc implementation shortly
        • security restrictions also prevent it from running on the web and accessing your aggregator
        • Mozilla is going to be the way to go.
    • aggregator.getRecentItems (numberOfItems, username, password) returns struct
      • result = XMLRPC.call(displayNews, "http://www.oreillynet.com/meerkat/xml-rpc/server.php", "meerkat.getItems", oStruct);
      • Blogger example on vcXMLRPC site useful
    • Looks like security restrictions will kick in
      • Thank goodness for the "keys to the kingdom" -- dammit, still need glossary expansion in the outliner

Get the zip file to run on your local web server at ie.zip
