What is RSS?
什么是RSS？
- RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication
Rss代表Really Simple Syndication - RSS allows you to syndicate your site content
Rss允许联合站点内容 - RSS defines an easy way to share and view headlines and content
Rss定义了一个简单的方式来共享和查看标题及内容。 - RSS files can be automatically updated
Rss文件可以自动更新 - RSS allows personalized views for different sites
Rss允许个人查看不同站点 - RSS is written in XML

Why use RSS?
为什么要使用rss？
RSS was designed to show selected data.
Rss的作用是显示已选择的内容。
Without RSS, users will have to check your site daily for new updates. This may be too time-consuming for many users. With an RSS feed (RSS is often called a News feed or RSS feed) they can check your site faster using an RSS aggregator (a site or program that gathers and sorts out RSS feeds).
没有RSS，用户就必须通过每天检查站点来进行更新。这对于很多用户而言无疑是一种时间的浪费。但通过RSS 输入端（feed）（RSS页常被叫成News feed 或RSS feed），它们就可以通过使用RSS sggregator（RSS aggregator——用来对RSS输入端（feed）进行收集和分类的站点或程序），用户就可以更快地访问站点。
Since RSS data is small and fast-loading, it can easily be used with services like cell phones or PDA's.
因为RSS数据更小，更容易加载，所以通过像手机或PDA's之类的服务器都可以很方便的使用。
Web-rings with similar information can easily share data on their web sites to make them better and more useful.
带有类似信息的Web-rings可以很容易地共享网站上的数据，并使这些数据更加优化、更加有用。
Who Should use RSS?
谁应该使用rss？
Webmasters who seldom update their web sites do not need RSS!
如果网络管理员不经常更新网站，那么他就不需要RSS。
RSS is useful for web sites that are updated frequently, like:
RSS对于需要经常更新的网站是非常有用的，如：
- News sites - Lists news with title, date and descriptions
新闻站点 – 列举使用标题、数据以及种类来分列的新闻 - Companies - Lists news and new products
公司 – 列举新闻以及新产品列表 - Calendars - Lists upcoming events and important days
日历 – 列举临近事件和重要日子 - Site changes - Lists changed pages or new pages
站点变化 – 列举变化的页面和新页面
The Future of RSS
RSS的将来
RSS is going to be everywhere!
RSS将无处不在！
Thousands of sites use RSS and more people understand its usefulness every day.
每天数以百千的站点都在使用RSS，更多的人们在了解它的实用性。
With RSS, information on the internet becomes easier to find, and web developers can spread their information more easily to special interest groups.
通过使用RSS，我们能更加方便地查找英特网信息，同时网络开发者也能更加容易地把他们的信息发送给特殊的网络群体。
RSS has been released in many different versions.
RSS用于很多不同版本。
The History of RSS
RSS历史
- 1997 - Dave Winer develops scriptingNews. RSS was born.
1997年- Dave Winer发展了scriptingNews. 于是RSS诞生了。
- 1999 - Netscape develops RSS 0.90 (which supported scriptingNews). This was simply XML with an RDF Header.
1999年- Netscape发展了RSS 0.90（scriptingNews支持）。这只是相对建议的包含RDF Header的XML。
- 1999 - Dave Winer at UserLand develops scriptingNews 2.0b1 (This included Netscape's RSS 0.90 features)
1999年- Dave Winer在UserLand发展了scriptingNews 2.0b1（这已经包含了Netscape's RSS 0.90的特征）
- 1999 - Netscape develops RSS 0.91. In this version they removed the RDF header, but included most features from scriptingNews 2.0b1.
1999年- Netscape发展了RSS 0.91。在这个版本中他们删去了RDF header，但是加进了大部分scriptingNews 2.0b1的特征。
- 1999 - UserLand gets rid of scriptingNews and uses only RSS 0.91
1999年- UserLand脱离了scriptingNews并且只使用RSS 0.91。
- Netscape stops their RSS development
Netscape终止了RSS发展
- 2000 - UserLand releases the official RSS 0.91 specification
2000年- UserLand放弃了官方RSS 0.91规格
- 2000 - A group lead by Rael Dornfest at O'Reilly develops RSS 1.0. This format uses RDF and namespaces. This version is often confused as being a new version of 0.91, but this is a completely new format with no ties to RSS 0.91
2000年-在Rael Dornfes，一个由Rael Dornfest领导的组织开发了RSS 1.0。其格式用到RDF和命名空间（namespaces）。尽管作为0.91版本之后的一个新版本，很多人对此持怀疑态度；但是这是一个和原先的RSS0.91没有任何关联的全新版本。
- 2000 - Dave Winer at UserLand develops RSS 0.92
2000年- Dave Winer在UserLand开发了RSS 0.92
- 2002 - Dave Winer develops RSS 2.0 after leaving Userland
2002年- Dave在离开Userland之后， 又开发了RSS 2.0。
- 2003 - The official RSS 2.0 specification is released

What are the Differences?
有什么不同？
RSS 1.0 is the only version that was developed using the W3C RDF (Resource Description Framework) standard.
RSS 1.0是唯一使用W3C RDF（资源描述框架Resource Description Framework）标准开发的。
The idea behind RDF is to help create a Semantic Web. *Read more about RDF and the Semantic Web here. However, this does not matter too much for ordinary users, but by using web standards it will be easier for persons and applications to exchange data.
RDF背后的想法是希望帮助创建一个语义网（Semantic Web）。Read more about RDF and the Semantic Web here.（如想了解更多请点击）当然，对于普通用户而言，这并不重要。但是使用网络标准可以更加容易的实现人与应用程序之间的数据交换。
What RSS Version Should I Use?
应该使用哪种版本？
RSS 0.91 and RSS 2.0 are easier to understand than RSS 1.0. Our tutorial is based on RSS 2.0.
RSS 0.91和 RSS 2.0对于RSS 1.0而言更容易理解。我们的教程就是以RSS 2.0为基础的。
Is There an RSS Web Standard?
是否存在RSS网络标准？
There is no official standard for RSS.
RSS没有官方标准：
- About 50 % of all RSS feeds use RSS 0.91
50%的RSS输入端（feed）都使用RSS 0.91 - About 25 % use RSS 1.0
25%使用RSS 1.0 - The last 25 % is split between RSS 0.9x versions and RSS 2.0
最后的25%使用RSS 0.9x 版本和 RSS 2.0
The syntax rules of RSS 2.0 are very simple and very strict. The rules are very easy to learn, and very easy to use.
RSS 2.0的语法规则非常简单而且很严谨。这些语法规则易学易用。
How RSS Works
RSS如何运行
RSS is used to share content between websites.
RSS是用于网站之间的内容共享的。
With RSS, you register your content with companies called aggregators.
通过RSS，你是通过一个名为aggregators的组织来注册内容的。
So, to be a part of it: First, create an RSS document and save it with an .xml extension. Then, upload the file to your website. Next, register with an RSS aggregator. Each day the aggregator searches the registered websites for RSS documents, verifies the link, and displays information about the feed so clients can link to documents that interests them.
所以，如果你想成为其中的一部分，首先得创建一个RSS文件，用“.XML”扩展名保存，并将其上传到站点；接着，通过RSS aggregator进行注册。aggregator每天都会为RSS文档搜寻已注册过站点，检验其连接并显示与RSS相关的信息以帮助客户链接到他们感兴趣的内容。
Tip: Read our RSS Publishing chapter to view free RSS aggregation services.
提示：阅读我们的RSS章节，查看免费RSS aggregation服务。
An Example RSS document
RSS文件实例
RSS documents use a self-describing and simple syntax.
RSS文件使用自我描述（self-describing）和简单语法。
Let's look at a simple RSS document:
让我们看一下简单的RSS文件：
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <channel> </rss> |
The first line in the document - the XML declaration - defines the XML version and the character encoding used in the document. In this case the document conforms to the 1.0 specification of XML and uses the ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1/West European) character set.
文件首行－XML通过在文件中使用编码来声明－定义了XML的版本和章节。所以此文件是符合XML1.0规格的，而且是使用ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1/West European)字符设置的。
The next line is the RSS declaration which identifies that this is an RSS document (in this case, RSS version 2.0).
下一行是确定RSS文件的RSS声明（２．０版本中）。
The next line contains the <channel> element. This element is used to describe the RSS feed.
下一行包含了<channel>元素。此元素用于描述RSS Feed的。
The <channel> element has three required child elements:
<channel>元素含有３个必要子元素：
- <title> - Defines the title of the channel (e.g. W3Schools Home Page)
<title>－定义了channel的标题（如：W3POP主页） - <link> - Defines the hyperlink to the channel (e.g. http://www.w3pop.com)
<link>－定义了到channel的超链接（如：http://www.w3pop.com） - <description> - Describes the channel (e.g. Free web building tutorials)
<description>－描述了channel（如：免费的网络建设教程）
Each <channel> element can have one ore more <item> elements.
每个<channel>元素可以拥有一个或多个<item>元素。
Each <item> element defines an article or "story" in the RSS feed.
每个<item>元素定义了一个项（article）或RSS Feed中的"story"。
The <item> element has three required child elements:
<item>元素含有３个必须子元素：
- <title> - Defines the title of the item (e.g. RSS Tutorial)
<title>－定义了项的标题（比如RSS教程） - <link> - Defines the hyperlink to the item (e.g. http://www.w3pop.com/rss)
<link>－定义了到项上的超链接（如：http://www.w3pop.com/rss） - <description> - Describes the item (e.g. New RSS tutorial on W3Schools)
<description>－定义了项（如：W3pop上的新RSS教程）
Finally, the two last lines close the <channel> and <rss> elements.
最后两行关闭了<channel> 和 <rss>元素。
Comments in RSS
RSS的注释
The syntax for writing comments in RSS is similar to that of HTML:
RSS中编写注释的语法与HTML相似。
<!-- This is an RSS comment --> |
RSS is Written in XML
用XML编写RSS
Because RSS is XML, keep in mind that:
因为RSS是XML，所以要记住：
- All elements must have a closing tag
所有元素必须含有一个结束标签 - Elements are case sensitive
元素要区分大小写 - Elements must be properly nested
元素必须恰当嵌套 - Attribute values must always be quoted
必须引用属性值

3.把RSS文件上传到网络服务器上的目录中
4. Copy the little orange 
or 
button to your web directory.
4.在网络目录上复制 或 按钮
5. Put the little orange "RSS" or "XML" button on the page where you will offer RSS to the world (e.g. on your home page). Then add a link to the button that links to the RSS file. The code will look something like this:
5.把这两个橙色按钮存放到你要提供给外界的RSS页面上（如：你的主页）接着，在这个链接RSS文件的按钮上添加下列链接：
<a href="www.w3schools.com.com/rss/myfirstrss.xml">
< img src="www.w3schools.com/rss/rss.gif" width="36" height="14">
</a>.
6. Submit your RSS feed to the RSS Feed Directories (you can Google or Yahoo for "RSS Feed Directories"). Note! The URL to your feed is not your home page, it is the URL to your feed, like "http://www.w3schools.com/rss/myfirstrss.xml". Here are some free RSS aggregation services:
6.把RSS Feed递交到RSS 输入端（feed）目录（你可以通过Google或Yahoo 搜索"RSS 输入端（feed）目录"）注意！Feed的URI不是你的主页，它只是FEED的URL而已，
（如："http://www.w3schools.com/rss/myfirstrss.xml".），下面是一些RSS集合服务：
- Syndic8: Over 300,000 feeds listed. Register your feed here.
Syndic8: 超过 300,000 输入端（feed）列表. 注册你的输入端(Feed). - Daypop: Over 50,000 feeds. Register your feed here.
