Someone else said no, but there actually is. It relies on the publisher including a last-modified header in their HTTP response headers, but here's some code to get you started. Once you have the last modified date, you can make a decision (in code) as to whether you want to download the rest of the feed or not.

Re: Rss feeds... modified since... ?
No. Not before you request and parse it. However RSS 2.0 has an attribute called which should contain an integer. This is the amount of time in minutes they suggest before you reload the feed. -Adam On 4/13/05, Phillip P Rutherford II <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Is there a way to check the timestamp on an rss feed before actually > having to retrieve the entire feed?

EH> Any quick good pointers to cf-based tag to pull rss feeds?
Here is something that has worked for me. MX is required. I'm not sure
if the method for detecting the feed type is all that great, but so
far so good.
It is set up to accept a list of feed URLs and return a record for
each. Within each 'meta' record is a 'results' cell which contains the
articles retrieved for that URL.
xmldoc=xmlparse(cfhttp.filecontent);
if(xmlchildpos(xmldoc,"rss",1) eq 1){
pathtometa="rss.channel";
pathtoitems="rss.channel.item";
}else{
pathtometa="rdf.channel";
pathtoitems="rdf.item";
}
meta=evaluate("xmldoc."&pathtometa);
items=evaluate("xmldoc."&pathtoitems);
if(structkeyexists(meta[1],"title")){title=meta[1].title.xmltext;}else{title="";}
if(structkeyexists(meta[1],"link")){link=meta[1].link.xmltext;}else{link="";}
if(structkeyexists(meta[1],"description")){desc=meta[1].description.xmltext;}else{desc="";}
queryaddrow(qrymeta);
querysetcell(qrymeta,"title",title);
querysetcell(qrymeta,"link",link);
querysetcell(qrymeta,"desc",desc);
querysetcell(qrymeta,"source",thisurl);
qryitems=querynew("title,link,desc");
for(i=1;i lte arraylen(items);i=i+1){
if(structkeyexists(items[i],"title")){title=items[i].title.xmltext;}else{title="";}
if(structkeyexists(items[i],"link")){link=items[i].link.xmltext;}else{link="";}
if(structkeyexists(items[i],"description")){desc=items[i].description.xmltext;}else{desc="";}
queryaddrow(qryitems);
querysetcell(qryitems,"title",title);
querysetcell(qryitems,"link",link);
querysetcell(qryitems,"desc",desc);
}
querysetcell(qrymeta,"results",qryitems);
