Hi everyone,

I have two problem in the RSS_MainTitle_Images_Date_Formatted.xsl file that I download in:

http://www.dnncreative.com/Portals/0/tutorials/RSS/RSS_MainTitle_Images_Date_Formatted.zip

1) I'd like that every links open a new page (target="_blank");

2) Where I put this string for limiting the number of News Items displayed?



Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello,

1) is explained in Setting up the RSS News Feed XSL Stylesheet
so, for example in that stylesheet look at this line of code:

(NOTE: in these examples I have added spaces before and after the < and > so that they display in the forum)

 < a href="{$ilink}" title="{$idesc}">< /a >

and add in

 < a href="{$ilink}" target="_new" title="{$idesc}">< /a >





2) I have not tested this code, but from looking at the date xsl file and the limit number of xsl file:

This is the code to limit number of items to 5

 < xsl:if test="position() < 6" >

    < br >< /br >
    < !-- to open links in a new window, change target="_main" to target="_new" -- >
    < strong >< a href="{link}" target="_main" >< xsl:value-of select="title"/ >< /a >< /strong >
    < br >
        < xsl:value-of select="pubDate"/ >
    < /br >

    < !-- only display markup for description if it's present -- >
    < !-- < xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="description"/ > -- >
    < br >< /br >
  < /xsl:if >


combining it with the date formatted.xsl I would try:

< div class="head" >
< xsl:if test="position() < 6" >
 < xsl:if test="$image" >
    < a href="{$ilink}" title="{$idesc}" >< xsl:value-of select="ilink" / >< /a >
    < img src="{$image}" height="{$ihigh}" width="{$iwide}" style="float: left; margin: 2px; border: 0px;"/ >
 < /xsl:if >
 < font size="-2" >< xsl:value-of select="description"/ >< br/ >
     < a href="{$link}" >< xsl:value-of select="title" / >< /a >< br/ >
 < xsl:value-of select="webMaster"/ >< br/ >
 < xsl:value-of select="copyright"/ >< /font >
 < hr/ >
< /xsl:if>
< /div >
