Never done this, but Import may be your tool of choice: xmlIn = Import["http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/europe/rss.xml";, "XML" ] get descriptions: Cases[xmlIn, XMLElement["description", {}, {desc___}] -> desc, Infinity] get links: Cases[xmlIn, XMLElement["link", {}, {desc___}] -> desc, Infinity] etc. Cheers -- Sjoerd On Feb 8, 11:03 am, Gregory Lypny <gregory.ly... at videotron.ca> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > Wondering if anyone has used Mathematica to grab RSS feeds and curate the m in some sort of a database for later analysis.
