Q: 

RSS Detector in NSXMLParser

How do I use NSXMLDetector to find RSS links in HTML files, the tags in the source are like so :

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="CNN - Top Stories [RSS]" href="http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss"&gt;

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="CNN - Recent Stories [RSS]" href="http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_latest.rss"&gt;

I need this in order to automatically detect RSS links in a RSS app. Thanks !

A: 

In both of your examples, the information you seek would be in the attributes dictionary given to your -parser:didStartElement:namespaceURI:qualifiedName:attributes: method.

How do I do that ?

@Alexandre your `NSXMLParser` should have a `delegate` assigned to it, and this is one of your delegate methods.

OK ThanksI wanna give you the reputation but it says the answer should be edited before answering. Can you just edit the answer like one letter so I can give the point?
