DominoPower Magazine on your Web site

If you're a Web site developer, you can now include the latest DominoPower Magazine news headlines and article titles on your site. This will ad value to your site by showing your support for DominoPower Magazine, and providing the latest information to your site's visitors. We do this by making available special "stub" files that you can incorporate into your Web site. Any time our publication is updated, these stub files are updated as well, so you can have the very latest information at all times.

Syndication formats
We provide a number of different formats, depending on your preferences, including Netscape RDF Site Summary format, XML, JavaScript, HTML, and plain text. If you'd like to include right in the middle of your Web page, the easiest approach is probably to use the JavaScript include files. If you're familiar with syndication formats or XML, the RDF format or the XML format is probably right for you. And if you'd just like to grab an HTML or text stub file, those are available as well.

JavaScript client-side includes
Most modern browsers support JavaScript. Because of this, you can usually use a JavaScript client-side include on your Web page. As your page is loaded, a small script embedded in the page's HTML is run. It then loads a small script running on our servers that contains our news and headline information. It's pretty simple to do. At the location where you want the information to be displayed, type the tag <SCRIPT SRC="xxx"></SCRIPT>. Just replace xxx with one of the options below:

  • News channel (HTML formatted): http://www.dominopower.com/shares/javascript/news-html.js
  • News channel (plain text): http://www.dominopower.com/shares/javascript/news-html.js

  • How-Tos channel (HTML formatted): http://www.dominopower.com/shares/javascript/articles-html.js
  • How-Tos channel (plain text): http://www.dominopower.com/shares/javascript/articles-html.js

  • Both channels (HTML formatted): http://www.dominopower.com/shares/javascript/channeldata-html.js
  • Both channels (plain text): http://www.dominopowercom/shares/javascript/channeldata-html.js

So, for example, let's say you wanted to include the full formatted HTML for both channels. You'd put type the following into your Web page's HTML:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://www.dominopower.com/shares/javascript/channeldata-html.js"></SCRIPT>

Netscape RDF Site Summary format
If you're using technology that's compatible with Netscape's RDF format (somewhat deprecated), you can use DominoPower Magazine's syndicated RDF data. There are two available DominoPower Magazine RDF channels: news and articles (how-tos). Here are the URLs for both:

  • News channel: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/netscape-rss/headlines.rdf
  • How-Tos channel: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/netscape-rss/articles.rdf

XML format
If you're using technology that's compatible with XML format (as used in my.userland.com), you can use DominoPower Magazine's syndicated XML data. There's a DominoPower Magazine channel that provides both news and how-to information. Here's the URL you should use:

  • http://www.dominopower.com/shares/userland-rss/channeldata.xml

HTML format
Any Web site can use DominoPower Magazine's syndicated HTML data. Our HTML syndication files are created without HTML wrapper information (i.e., the normal page starting and ending HTML tags) so that you can easily include our HTML stubs into your Web site's HTML (you can even include this information in tables). There are three available DominoPower Magazine HTML channels: news, articles (how-tos), and a combination of both. Here are the URLs for them all:

  • News channel: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/news-articles-html/news.html
  • How-Tos channel: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/news-articles-html/articles.html
  • Both channels: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/news-articles-html/channeldata.html

Plain Text format
We also offer plain text format data. Our text syndication files are made available so that you can easily include our plain text files on your site. They're also quite easy to parse if you use any automated production technology. There are three available DominoPower Magazine plain text channels: news, articles (how-tos), and a combination of both. Here are the URLs for them all:

  • News channel: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/news-articles-text/news.txt
  • How-Tos channel: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/news-articles-text/articles.txt
  • Both channels: http://www.dominopower.com/shares/news-articles-text/channeldata.txt

Terms and conditions of use
You are welcome to include this information anywhere on your Web site. However, we do ask that you only include information provided from the URLs listed above. Please do not repost or re-use actual articles or portions of our publication (doing so would be a copyright violation). We also ask that if you do use our headlines and/or article titles that you both credit the publication and include the publication's URL (http://www.dominopower.com/).
