Newsfeeds
The Local now offers live newsfeeds of all of articles.
Using an RSS reader you can have The Local's headlines delivered straight to your desktop as we update them throughout the day.
If you do not already have a reader, or aggregator, you can download one from various providers. If you're using a PC use SharpReader or FeedDemon. On a Mac try NetNewsWire & NewNewsWire Lite (free). And if you work within Outlook, you can use NewsGator. Linux users can use Straw.
Then just copy and paste the address for the newsfeed channel of your choice into your reader. We have two channels:
All articles: http://www.thelocal.se/RSS/theLocal.xml
Business articles: http://www.thelocal.se/RSS/theLocalBusiness.xml
If you run a web site
If your site is for people living in Sweden, with an interest in Sweden, or selling Swedish products, our free daily content will keep things looking current and add to the overall Swedishness of your visitors' experience.
You can use the XML by clicking on the link above, or copy the relevant bits of code from below and add them to your own site. If you have any problems or questions, you can email us and we'll do our best to help: support@thelocal.se.
Alternatively, you can one of our widgets.
Add this bit at the top of the page. It is a call to a PHP page on The Local and picks up the data for the news:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="http://www.thelocal.se/scripts/getHeadlines.php"></script>
Then this bit sits in the body of the code. If you would like a basic format, use this:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
i = '0';
for (var i in detail) {
document.writeln( '<h2><a href="' + detail[i].url + '">' + detail[i].headline + '</a></h2>'
+ '<p>' + detail[i].summary + '<br />'
+ '<span class="smallPrint">Added on ' + detail[i].formatedDate + ' @ ' + detail[i].time + ' DST</span></p>' );
i++;
}
//]]>
</script>

"The ice dripped in the winter sun. It was the first day when the light had been intense enough to cause dripping in the sunlight. To hear it was an extraordinary wakeup call.
