OT: JavaScript / Browser problem

Hi,=20

I'm no JavaScript guru and I need assistance with the following script.
It does not seem work at all with Netscape or Firefox, and users report
occasional errors with IE, though I cannot reproduce.

<A HREF ="http://www.hotelinteractive.com/rss.html (view source)">http://www.hotelinteractive.com/rss.html (view source)</A>

Any help from the developer gurus on this list? Is there a way to access
the XML feed without using ActiveX? Is there anything else wrong with
it?

Help!


Thanks...

If it helps, here's what the firefox javascript console reports:

Error: ActiveXObject is not defined
Source File: <A HREF ="http://www.hotelinteractive.com/rss.html">http://www.hotelinteractive.com/rss.html</A>
Line: 22

"Is there a way to access the XML feed without using ActiveX? "

MvCALL?

(Never tried it with RSS, but since it's XML I don't see why this shouldn't
work...)

Thanks, Markus, but I meant is there a way from JavaScript to
emulate/replace this type of functionality.
The issue is that I need a simple method that (just about) *any
webmaster* can use to integrate our feed to accommodate most of their
visitors, ie: Client-side. JavaScript is an acceptable technology, and
so is ActiveX, if necessary, but I'd at least like to see it run across
multiple browsers.

Andrew,

FWIW, the reason I posted the javascript console results is, outside of
the activeX, there are *no* javascript errors, it's perfectly valid
scripting.

I've never done RSS, but there are a lot of ways to go about it without
the evil activex <g>.

Hi Andrew,

Here is a very nice script that generates a javascript RSS reader for you.

http://itde.vccs.edu/rss2js/build.php

It uses a hosted php script, but if your server is PHP enabled (which one
isn't???) you can download & install it on your machine:

http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/


Hope that works!

Markus
