21/8/08 :update 2

1- we found during research tha some RSS are not after the standard construction in their tags,so they cant be parsed by visual studio,dnt know if we suppose to do the parsing ourselves!

2-in GUI:problem of opening the link from the title was solved,but it wasnt solved for opening the link from the image.
3-design of UI is finished,with its events,but without the animations
4-we've divided the new RSS code into classes and made its input a URI with the output as object of items class(like required from the interface).
5- the clean text code isnt working for the new RSS code so currently checking why
6- we tried a new concept for removing the tags(by using a function from xdocument called Xpath, but so it'll consume more time in writing its code.

21/8/08 :update 1

1-we finished the base interface of the silverlight, modifying now the controls
2-searching for the problem(no root element) i the rss grabber and in parallel looking for another code for parsing rss into xml
