Hi everybody,
I try to include a simple number from another page. I have all possibilities how the number is provided. I tried to use the Extension:RSS for including, but sadly this extension is adding a <p> tags around the transclusion of the RSS feed.
You can see one of my tries at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Dennisroczek (the number 121 which has a few newlines around the 121).
Additional you can see my test template which transcludes the number 121. As you can see in the wiki code (and in the history) I tried to experiment a few with CSS. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/WikiAction/edit/Template:Test
As I said: the number can be provided in a format i need. The RSS feed is not mandatory.
Regards,
Dennis Roczek

Do you have to use RSS?
What I would do (also for the benefits of caching) is to update the number externally by the bot editing the template.
I have a pywikipedia bot that updates currency tables from RSS:

Hi saper,
actually I do want to avoid using a bot for that.
No, I do not have to use a RSS feed - that was a first fast test as I already had the extension installed. I can provide the number in any possible way - by a text file, a web service or whatever. Actually I do not want to use a bot as this has to be run additional (and in a perfect world on our server). Isn't there any possibility to include the "text" without line breaks?
Regards,
Dennis

I have edited the template to include a literal number, and it is there in the <span> without newlines.
The problems is that tag extensions get their output wrapped into <p>...</p>. I think this is a FAQ and there is a very old bug report about this (but I can't find it at the moment).

I know / I saw that you changed the template.

As I said: I do not need the extension. I would be happy to include the content by any other method...
