Working with .TEXT (Part 1)

OK, I’m not sure if this is correct or not, but here goes. In order to allow newsreaders to still retrieve the RSS feed during this transition, I’m attempting to redirect the old BlogX url to the new feed. After some trial and error, I found that adding the following in the web.config:

<add verb ="*" path ="blogxbrowsing.asmx" type ="Dottext.Framework.UrlManager.UrlReWriteHandlerFactory,Dottext.Framework" />

and the following to the blog.config:

<HttpHandler Pattern = "(?:\/GetRss)$" Type = "Dottext.Framework.Syndication.RssHandler, Dottext.Framework" HandlerType = "Direct" />

appears to (at least with a browser) bring up the xml feed. If the feed isn’t working, please let me know. Also, if anyone knows of a better way to do this, please pass on the info.

Also, it looks like I should be able to get email based on comments and contact. Not sure why it’s not working just yet… guess I’ll have to work on that later. For now… time for zzzzzzzz………
