    As a beginner, this simple piece of code helped me a lot to get started. Thank you very much!

    Just got a question for you experts: What if I'd like to have the "text only" part of the web page to be displayed in the details page instead of loading the entire webpage? I want to do so, basically to make the whole process a bit faster and to avoid of wasting time for images and other multimedia stuffs to be downloaded. Will appreciate a lot if anyone could kindly help me with this…

    Cheers!

    After the CTP April refesh this code does not work

    After the CTP Refresh in April this example no longer runs. It seems like the System.ServiceModel.Syndication is no longer available. I have read one tip on adding the dll from v.3 of Silverlight but I can not get it to deploy on the emulator so I guess that it won't work.

    For the latest version of Visual Studio, I had to add these to WMAppManifest.xml:

    <Capabilities>

       <Capability Name="ID_CAP_NETWORKING"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_LOCATION"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_SENSORS"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_MICROPHONE"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_MEDIALIB"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_GAMERSERVICES"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_PHONEDIALER"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_PUSH_NOTIFICATION"/>

          <Capability Name="ID_CAP_WEBBROWSERCOMPONENT"/>

    </Capabilities>

    I had to change RuntimeType from "SilverLight" to "Silverlight"

    I had to remove PlaceHolderString="Default task" because I don't know what to replace it with

    I had to add references for Microsoft.Phone and Microsoft.Phone.Controls

    I got errors about Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Navigation, Microsoft.Phone.Controls.WebBrowser, Microsoft.Phone.Controls.WebBrowserInterop, Microsoft.Phone.Shell, and Microsoft.Phone.Shell.Interop so I removed references of those

    For System.ServiceModel.Syndication.dll, I had to display the properties of it in FileManager and press the Unblock button. 

    I'm still getting these messages (don't know how to fix them):

    Error 1 The type or namespace name 'PhoneApplicationPage' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Users\Greg\Downloads\RssReader\RssReader\RssReader\DetailsPage.xaml.cs 17 40 RssReader
    Error 2 The type or namespace name 'PhoneApplicationPage' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Users\Greg\Downloads\RssReader\RssReader\RssReader\MainPage.xaml.cs 19 37 RssReader

    Error 4 The type or namespace name 'PhoneApplicationPage' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft.Phone.Controls' (are you missing an assembly reference?) C:\Users\Greg\Downloads\RssReader\RssReader\RssReader\obj\Debug\DetailsPage.g.i.cs 37 65 RssReader

    MS has merged the some of the child assemblies into the parent so you just need to adjust the assembly reference namespaces...
