I checked out the XML you're receiving, but I don't see any description node and the title is not as you provided, so I don't know if I'm looking at the right page. This is what I checked:
http://code.blogger.com/feeds/posts/defaultThat's pretty monstrous, I'd suggest using the blogger api instead. You'll need to request an api key and the responses will be in json instead of xml. There's an existing json script for mirc which supports url caching and parsing so you'll need to do very little else if you decide to use it.
Here is the json script:
http://www.mircscripts.org/comments.php?cid=4407Without an api key you will be given an error for most (if not all) requests, if you provide an invalid key (as I have done here) you'll receive a "Bad Request" error. Until you get your key you can use the api reference page (below), this will give you valid responses to work with which you can save to file for testing.
Here is a functioning example that will display either the error message or (once you've supplied the api key) the title of the post:
alias blogger {
var %url = https://www.googleapis.com/blogger/v3/blogs/3213900/posts?fetchBodies=false&maxResults=1&key=YOUR_API_KEY
;var %url = json.txt
var %error.code = $json(%url,error,code)
if (%error.code) {
echo -ag $json(%url,error,message)
}
else {
echo -ag $json(%url,items,0,title)
}
}This is to get you started with the blogger api:
https://developers.google.com/blogger/docs/3.0/getting_startedTo retrieve a blog's id you can use this page:
https://developers.google.com/blogger/docs/3.0/reference/blogs/getByUrl#try-itThis is the specific method reference I used:
https://developers.google.com/blogger/docs/3.0/reference/posts/listThis last link is very useful, it allows you to try out the method and will supply you with the request to make and the response that's given. You can even request that only some of the fields be retrieved (the page has a useful section where you check off what you want) - this is recommended for performance.
