About

YesRSS is written in C#, using version 3.5 of the ASP.NET framework.

Amongst it's feature-list, technologies applied, with an example of their usage, include;

• Ajax
  Footer control bar when viewing a feed/search results...
• CSS 3.0
  Rounded borders, text-shadows...
• jQuery 1.4
  Attaching functions to events, general selection goodness...
• Multi-threading
  If you dont specify the exact url of a feed, the page is downloaded, parsed, and all feeds are downloaded asynchronously...
• Cached
  For every query, it must be retrieved, parsed, then analysed. The same feed may be reused over a single request or over the course of a cached period (20 minute(s) - varies according to load)...
• Post-processing / sanitation of external markup.
  When a feed or search result list is retrieved, modifications are applied(styling removed, duplicate line breaks removed, adding classes etc). YesRSS uses the Html Agility Pack which offers a nice XPath type of selector to retrieve elements from a supplied HTML string.
• RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 compliant
  YesRSS supports the latest and greatest specifications of RSS and Atom.
  It also does it's best to parse the myriad of non-standards compliant feeds.
