RSS question, currently using Magpie...

I'm trying to read rss weather feeds, but am fairly new to this.
Currently I've set up Magpie RSS to read the yahoo weather feeds. So
far so good. The problem is that not all fields seem to be parsed. I'm
particularly interested in the "<yweather ... />" field. It just isn't
there. Could it be that Magpie ignores it? I believe it mainly seraches
for <tag> </tag> fields and nothing else, but I'm not sure.

What does the "/>" end of the tag mean?

Anyone knows if Magpie can solve or not solve this problem?

The feed is here:
http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/forecastrss?p=NOXX0029&u=f
Anuone know of any good RSS 2.0 readers?
Thanks!!

Total newbie to RSS here... I'd like to add "latest headlines" from Yahoo's RSS feed to my website, but all I can find when I go looking for code examples is complete, elaborate RSS aggregators and news readers. I don't need the whole package, just some sample code for pulling and parsing the feed, or a good tutorial that covers the basics. The only tutorials I've found so far are about how to use existing aggreagators, and not how to...

Have been fighting with this code for days! Thanks

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
