News

Note This part is only relevant to subscribers of the TBDXS/News service. Also, this section shorly describes the new formatting of the <Agency> "summary" mode, rather than the older "nested" mode.

In more detail, the <News> element contains the news articles from a certain agency.

In the diagram above, you can see all relevant elements and attributes for news articles. Of course <News> elements can occur several times when different agencies are present, and <Article> nodes can occur several times within a <News> node.

Next to this, the <Article> node can contain several links to extra data, such as companies, categories, sector information, etc.; e.g.,

• <News agency="abc">
  • <Article id="123" original-id="2186B" language="nl" date="..." time="..." source="AxC" editor="TBM">
    • <Header>
    • </Header>
    • <SubHeader>
