IE7 RSS Feed Auto Discovery

by Andrew Jackson 25. August 2006 17:34

Took me a while to find this when I was looking for it so I'll reproduce it here.


If you want to make the little feed button light up in IE7 to indicate you have an RSS/Atom feed available then this is what you want to do;

For RSS add the following link to your page head
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"
title="your feed title here" href="http://www.company.com/feedurl.rss" >


For Atom add the following link to your page head
<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="your feed title here" href= "http://www.company.com/feedurl.xml" >


I got this from the MS RSS Team Blog

It's got some useful stuff on it so worth a look.

Visual Studio Debug Visualizers

by Andrew Jackson 1. August 2006 17:31

I needed to knock up a small custom debug visualizer for a project I'm working on.  There really easy but I always have to lookup the exact references etc to include which is actually the longest part of the process.

To ease matters next time I spent a little time creating a project template, something I've never done before.  Now when I want a new visualizer I just start a new project based on the template and it's got all the references etc done for me, all I have to do is read the todo messages and replace a few lines to include the functionality I need.

I thought I'd share the visualizer template with you since I'm sure others will have googled this several times over to remember how to do it. 

You can download the vsi package from my Visual Studio 2005 Tools downloads area
