In my environment, it is very slow to get the WebResponse. It took me nearly 5 minutes to get MSDN rss xml. But I can get it several seconds from IE browser. Is there any idea to improve it?

Thanks very much.

Is it possible to consume this control in a win32 app? I'm getting an error when calling BindData(). I've added reference for System.Web and System.Web.UI.

Thanks in advance.

k, RssFeed is designed as a Web control, not a WinForms control. However, with a bit of work you could rip out the guts of RssFeed and plug it into a WinForms control, I'd imagine. (I have next to no experience building WinForms controls...)

In any event, the best place to ask questions w.r.t. RssFeed is the RssFeed GotDotNet workspace's messageboard: http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/MessageBoard/messageBoard.aspx?id=6303

Hi,

I'm using RssFeed for some internal stuff on my pages. It works great on most feeds, but on some. like http://www.computerworld.com/news/xml/50/0,5009,,00.xml it decodes the pubDate badly. Is the feed or your control at fault?

Kenneth, thanks for finding that bug. It has been squashed, see http://scottonwriting.net/sowblog/posts/2119.aspx
