( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Am I just being dense, or is this file (http://headlinenews.cnn.com/QUICKNEWS/virtual/swf.headline.txt) two months old ? (Fri Oct 13 17:53:45 2000)

update it doesn't look like I am, since this is the file that the ticker points to... but if you wait long enough, you'll see what looks like an error in their regexps whenever one of the state headlines has an '&' in it. the headline gets truncated at the '&'!

update Il Papa JCWren has kindly contacted the CNN folks about the stale news & apparently they've had a hung ftp server for a month+. Wow.

update It looks like somethings gone all b0rken again: headlinecount=0&&headlineload=done

"There is no news. Go away."

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
