How does yahoo! news updates their news every sec? php?
Does yahoo! have thousands of web news editors their working everyday to update the news? Or is there a script provided that the authorized news editors can post a news to the website without the webmaster to upload it to the webserver?? Can somebody provide a link or info about how this works? Thanks!

Do you mean Document Object Model http://www.w3.org/DOM/DOMTR ? But does the pre installed "Joomla/mambo" (in our cpanel) has this capability ? I haven't tried Joomla yet, but I think it has sligh difference from what DOM has.ole wrote:AJAX.
JavaScript makes a server request every minute or so and gets XML which it then formats into the page with the DOM.

I believe they are partnered with hundreds, if not thousands, of news providers. Their content comes from various sources which they then compile and present to the users. It is updated frequently to keep the content fresh, but their content sources are from all over the place. It is the same with their other content services.joseph wrote:Does yahoo! have thousands of web news editors their working everyday to update the news?
