I have made an RSS feed reader to post my latest blog in a small box on my homepage. It is a real small box that I want users to click on if they want to read more–which takes them to the blog. Thus, I do not want the text to scroll, but I would like it to display […] or something to that effect at the end of the dynamic text box which is populated by the RSS feed indicating that there is more. This could be done with some CSS, I think. Is there another way? I swear when I was testing it, there was […] and then I changed the font or something and now it is gone.
At times there are pictures on the blog, and the Flash RSS reader pulls those into my small box on the homepage quite well, but of course you can’t see what it is. Is there some way I could resize all the images coming into that box? I am using a PHP proxy to bring the XML data from the RSS into flash, would that be a good place to resize the images? Sorry, I am just burned out at this point and probably not making any sense.
