CaRP Tips

CaRP is a PHP script, so naturally, using it in PHP pages is easier than in non-PHP pages. You may already know that you can use CaRP's JavaScript output option to display feeds in non-PHP pages. You may also know that if you do that, search engines won't be able to see the feed's content. You may know that with SSI, you can often #include a PHP page into another page and have the PHP code executed. But sometimes SSI #includes don't trigger the PHP code in the page that's being imported. Here's a little code snippet that I used today to import the output from a PHP script (running CaRP) into an ASP page when using an SSI #include failed to execute the PHP:

<%
Dim objHttp
set objHttp = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
objHttp.open "POST", "http://example.com/feed.php", false
objHttp.Send
If objHttp.status = 200 Then
response.write(objHttp.responseText)
End If
set objHttp = nothing
%>

Hi,

I have been using carp for a few months now... when i originally set it up, i put all my carp feeds on .htm pages. Can you further clarify what you mean when you say that search engines can't read a feed's content when displayed on non-PHP pages? Do you mean that they can't see any of it, and it makes it NOT search engine friendly - or do you mean that SE's can't read the cache where its coming from?

If you run CaRP from a PHP page and have it output the feeds as JavaScript, and then put <script> tags into your .htm pages to display the feed, search engines looking at your page will ignore the script tag--thus the feed will be invisible to the search engine. The search engine still sees the rest of the page just fine--you just don't get any extra SEO benefit from the feed. To get the SEO benefit in a non-PHP page, you need to use the technique described on this page or one of the techniques described in this entry.

Using this method mentioned above with the asp page using an .php page, the search engines will still see the RSS content for SEO correct?

If you created these directories manually (for example, with the command "mkdir manualcache", etc.), please delete them and run the installation script again. If the installation script created them, then some unexected error is causing the problem.

I want to add content from the following link:

http://www.aiim.org/rss/latest.asp

Which method should I use with the CaRP application to get this content to display on a html page?

Is there a carp solution for .aspx files just as there is for .asp files?

Yes I to can't figure out how to display http://testerver.testS.net/rss/cj/testme.asp?id=2345456

It just serves up a blank page? What would I put in the PHP file that calls this line to correct the problem??


Thanks

John

The server my site is on does not support PHP, only ASP. Will CaRP work?

I want to put a Google News feed on my site.
