EventNett can be linked to in three different ways. An RSS feed is available for subscribing to events from any news aggregator. A permalink is available for linking to a specific search, event, or location. An OBJECT feed is available to include in web pages as an OBJECT element. Each of these is available from the search panel, the event view, and the location view.

The OBJECT feed is a URL that can be used in another web page to display events in a read-only list view. The data attribute of the object element must be set with the feed URL. The following example template will return all events in Atlanta, GA:

<object width="800px" height="400px"
       data="http://www.eventnett.com/FeedServlet?
       filter.area=Atlanta%2C+GA&
       user_profiles.time_zone=US%2FEastern&
       user_profiles_eventnet.date_format=d+MMM+yyyy"
   type="text/html"></object>

The URL includes the parameters for the query along with the current session's time zone and date format as specified in the Configuration tab of the session view.
