Webfeed Setup

On your web page, please place the relevant code for your desired newsfeed in the 'header' of your webpage.

<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='http://www.webfeeds.net/es/health/'> </script>

Then the following tag should be inserted within the 'body' tags at the position on your site where you want the newsfeed to appear:

<script>newsfeed();</script>

This will give you our standard format for the newsfeed. However, if you would prefer the newsfeed to have the colours/style of your website, you can add coding between the brackets in '...newsfeed().....'.

For example, if you want the table to be wider, with a light yellow background, you would amend the code like this:

<script>newsfeed("wd=500&bg=ffffff");</script>

Here is the full listing of changeable options:

wd = width of table
bd = width of border
sp = table spacing
bc = border colour
bg = background colour
hc = headline colour
hf = headline font
hs = headline font size
hsa = headline font size (non-style compliant browsers)
hv = headline 'hover' colour
sc = standfirst colour (The standfirst is a synopsis of the news article)
sf = standfirst font
ss = standfirst size
ssa = standfirst size (non-style compliant browsers)
dc = date / source colour
df = date / source font
ds = date / source size
dsa = date / source size (non-style compliant browsers)

Please email support@scidev.net with your URL once you have the news feed up and running.  This will enable us to monitor the success of the service, and also to contact you if there are any changes to the coding of the newsfeed in the future.
