Hello there =)

Is is possible to use the Isilox Clipper on http://www.newsnow.co.uk ?
I´ve made some tries myself now, but have had any sucess yet. I might
have missed some important settings though.

http://www.newsnow.co.uk is a really nice newssite with tons
of cathegories, would be really neat to be able to use the clipper
on that page.

Thnx!

I'm not sure that it's possible to use here because every link is a redirect. I don't think that iSilo can handle that, as it will try to download the page doing the redirecting. Even if they were direct links, it would be unweildy to use iSilo here (as with other link sites like Slashdot) because all the links are to other sites with graphics, and layouts, etc. that will be large downloads.

Anyone else have an idea here?

Nope, you are totally right ignatz. Willson, the site you posted is one of those news sites that redirect the headlines to various external news agencies. This is probably the worst scenario for a successful iSiloX download.

I downloaded the latest isilox, beta version.
Clicked on the integrated icon i IE, put the "Follow links to maximum depth" to 3,
unclicked the pictures option. And it went real smooth this time =)

This was the url I used.
It seems to work good on the "lined up" stories.
