I am not Yahoo Pipes user but I do not know anything about programming. I use Yahoo Pipes to generate RSS feeds from several websites that allow me to use their feeds on my site. What I need is to clean up these sites from all the unwanted styles like this: <div style="font-family:Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;font-size:12px;direction:rtl;...
I have an apparently simple regex query for pipes - I need to truncate each item from it's (<img>) tag onwards. I thought a loop with string regex of <img[.]* replaced by blank field would have taken care of it but to no avail. Obviously I'm missing something basic here - can someone point it out? The item as it stands goes along some...
I'd like to save a copy of some of my pipes offline before I go to edit them, and possibly reload them from an external source again in future. Can this be done? ...

I want to use Yahoo pipes to extract part of a webpage and convert it to RSS. The problem is Pipes says the page is too long which is frustrating, because seemingly I can't do anything about it. Is there a way to solve this problem within Pipes? If not, the only way I can think of is finding a web service similar to Pipes which can ext...

Hi, I was trying to get a custom RSS feed to use with the MiroTV app - an application that gets video from an RSS feed and download it so you can watch it in your pc. I mostly use MiroTV to watch video lectures from sites that already a nice rss feed for their lectures like Yale Open Courses. I learned about Yahoo! Pipes recently and ...
Using Yahoo Pipes, is it possible to poll this url http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/P-%5FqWQXyAPU/ and get the real url http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/12/08/build-it-with-me returned to the pipe? Ideally the solution would be generic enough to poll any url and get it's "real" url. I'm thinking it might be possible with YQL b...
I've been tasked with getting all the SMS updates from this page and putting them into a JSON feed using Yahoo Pipes. I'm not entirely sure how I would get each update, as they are not individual elements, but just a collection of title, etc. Any shared wisdom would be much appreciated! ...
I've used Yahoo Pipes for some prototyping, but I'm unwilling reluctant to use it in full production as we'll have no control over it uptime etc. Is there an (ideally open source) alternative that I can run on my own server? Or any application that can convert a pipe into PHP or Ruby? ...
my question is similar to the one here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/360492/regular-expression-on-yahoo-pipes i have my gmail status hooked up to twitter through friendfeed, but unfortunately, they truncate the link text, and my links aren't working once they get to twitter. I need to be able to take this: <div style="margin-to...
I'm trying to find a way to split a single RSS feed into separate feeds based on keyword matches. Yahoo Pipes was my first thought, but I couldn't find a way to do it. Although Pipes has a split module, there is only one output module available for any pipe. So I can't see how I would ever get more than one feed from a pipe. The whole ...
I am trying to create a rss feed from a web page. I am able to get the data to create the title, but I am trying to get the date updated correctly. There is a string on the page, that tells what time of day the news was reported, such as "Time of Report: 1pm". So how can I get the "1pm" and convert that to a date string that contains ...

I'm looking for a regex to extract two numbers from the same text (they can be run independently, no need to extract them both in one go. I'm using yahoo pipes.

How do you deal with this? ...
I'm wondering how you can use Yahoo Pipes to get any tweets than contain a url to link to that url when clicked, instead of linking to Twitter. ...
I am trying to use YQL to extract a portion of HTML from a series of web pages. The pages themselves have slightly different structure (so a Yahoo Pipes "Fetch Page" with its "Cut content" feature does not work well) but the fragment I am interested in always has the same class attribute. If I have an HTML page like this: <html> <bo...
Pipes is being very buggy lately and has stopped saving new pipes these days. Google Mashup Editor and Microsoft Popfly are both discontinued. Are there are any currently running web apps(or atleast libraries that run on appengine) that do something similar ? ...
