RSS Feed Question Please

Hi...

Could someone please tell me how to put RSS feeds on a website and have the results show on the same website instead of opening a window from the publishers website.

I know it can be done, I just can't remember how. It's been several years since I did it that way.

Thanks,
John

    Wait, you want to show a feed from someone else's website on your site, but when someone clicks on a link it takes them to YOUR site with the other person's content neatly formatted on the page?

    Sounds like you may have been displaying the feed from your site ON your site in the past as it would then work that way.

    I've never heard of a function that seamlessly does what you're looking for.

    You could add JS or change the links in PHP (where you need to parse the RSS feed) to open the link in an iframe on your site.

      Thanks guys...

      There was a well know popular script that started with the letter "C" before that did exactly that. I'll keep looking.

      Thanks,

    It sounds like you want to display an RSS feed within your HTML website. The easiest/best way to do this is to use RSS2HTML a free PHP script. This means that you can retain the complete control of the HTML layout (using templates) and make it match your existing design. Additionally using PHP rather than JavaScript will mean that search engine spiders can "spider" the contents of the RSS feeds.

    Additional details and a free rss2html download is available at: RSS2HTML free PHP script for displaying RSS feeds

    Additional information and other options for displaying RSS feeds can be found at: Displaying RSS Feeds

    Goodluck!
