<b>Customizing Feeds...</b>
Customizing feeds is the easiest part of the game. Just replace the entry between the <b><feed></feed></b> tags with the feed URL. And that's it !
For e.g., if I wanted to see only ABAP posts, the feed URL would have been <b>http://feeds.feedburner.com/SDNWeblogs_Abap</b> and the code would have looked something like :
<b>
<feed refresh-interval="900" menu="true" refresh-onclick="true">http://feeds.feedburner.com/SDNWeblogs_Abap</feed></b>
Here are the results, <b>Only ABAP Weblogs...</b>

Therefore if you want to search SAP Support Notes you would need to pass cat=sdn_ossnotes to the search URL.
