RSS, sometimes referred to as "Really Simple Syndication," allows California Healthline subscribers to access "newsfeeds" of the day's top headlines and abstracts without having to visit the California Healthline web site. Subscribers may also view the headlines and abstracts of the five most recent articles on any topic in the same manner.

You can easily add the newsfeeds to your newsreader (see "Reading Feeds" below for details). You can also add the feeds to a page on your web site (see Terms of Use for our requirements, and see "Adding a Feed to a Web Page" for instructions).

Reading Feeds

In order to read our RSS newsfeeds, you need a newsreader, also known as a news aggregator, like Bloglines, My MSN, iGoogle, My Yahoo, or Newsgator. All the newsreaders listed are free, and easy to set up. You can add one of our feeds to your newsreader by doing the following:

Browse to the California Healthline home page and log in.
Choose a feed.
If you want to subscribe to the daily top headlines and abstracts, click the RSS icon or the RSS Feed text link. A new window will appear.
If you want to subscribe to a newsfeed of the headlines and abstracts of the five most recent articles related to any topic, select the topic from the Topics menu on the left. Click the RSS icon or the RSS Feed text link. A new window will appear.
Copy the URL of the new window from the browser's address bar.
Paste the URL into the Add URL or Add New Channel section of your newsreader.

Adding a Feed to a Web Page

Unlike adding a feed to a newsreader, adding a feed to your web page requires some technical know-how. To get the best results, you should have some knowledge of HTML, CSS and Javascript.

If you're not a programmer, you can use a free RSS-to-Javascript converter to generate the code necessary to add one of our feeds to your web page. A free converter is available from:

Note that we place some restrictions on use of our feeds in your web page.
For example, we require you to display the approved graphical banner below with the feeds
