hi,
I am trying to adapt the News Ticker from the tutorials section to display headlines from the bbc’s technology feed, but when i change the url in the code from
xmlData.load(“http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/swf/news.xml?blarg=”+new Date().getTime());
to
xmlData.load(“http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/technology/rss.xml?blarg=”+new Date().getTime());
I just get the BBC main headline flashing continuously and it doesn’t cycle through the actual news items.
I think this has something to do with how the xml is being parsed, but have so far been unable to get it right. any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.
