pausing RSS Scroller, not getting RSS feed

Script DD pausing RSS Scroller
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...ller/index.htm


the scroller was working properly until this morning, when I started getting the "I give up trying to fetch RSS feed" message, I thought I had changed something so I downloaded the demo and other files again, but I have the same results with the original files, any ideas?

thank you,

Martin

Feed is down? Low bandwidth?

I have had this same issue as well. I have found that clicking Reload (Refresh) usually gets it working. But I'm not sure why it does this. Possibly there is a timeout limit somewhere? Unfortunately I dont know PHP but I sense I may need to learn it.

John,

I don't think is has to do with the feed, since the demo file is pointing to another feed with the same results, both in my computer and after loading the file to the website, anyway can you check www.rulesguru.com/demo.htm on your side to see if it works?

thank you,

Martin

The URL http://www.rulesguru.com/demo.htm doesn't work for me. Please update the URL.

The script tries for about 8 seconds repeatedly before giving up, btw.

I'm getting the exact same issue. Using this script for reference: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...ller/index.htm

Links for example
http://expertshouston.com/2006/
here is the demo file
http://expertshouston.com/2006/demo.htm

A speedy response would be appreciated. Thanks!

Gentryw, in the case of demo.htm, the problem should be this error:

http://expertshouston.com/2006/lastr...idge.php?id=ca

Make sure the authorized domains variable inside scrollerbridge.php is either set to "" to allow any domain to use the scroller, or that it contains "expertshouston.com".

[gentryw]

$allowedDomains="expertshouston.com";

I had it set to "" before, it is presently set to expertshoutson.com and still getting the error.

Gentryw:
Ok, try disabling the domain check feature in scrollerbridge.php altogether, by commenting the line:

//@checkdomains($allowedDomains, $_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]);

Depending on how your server is set up, it may not be returning the proper referral information in order for this feature to work properly.

[gentryw]

I made that change, still no good.

I don't know if it means anything, but when I went directly to the scrollerbridge.php in the browser, it returned this error. I doubt it means anything.

rsscontentdata="Error: Can't find requested RSS in list."
