RSS to HTML output on your domain

    Does anyone know of any software that will take a RSS feed and display articles as though they come from your own domain? I'm thinking a MySQL database would be necessary to store the articles.

    I use Feedburner's BuzzBoost on my portal page which republishes rss feeds you own as html. I have it set to display only a few words but you can set it to download and display the whole article. You can also customize the look of the feed with CSS. Otherwise I found this on a Google search. Not sure if this is what you are looking for but hope it helps.

    *My bad. The amount of information that is displayed is controlled by the feed owner. So unless it is a feed you own there really isn't much you can do about what info is displayed.

    Hey Swin, thanks for your posting!

    Although there is a quick question I have. The http://www.feedforall.com script says RSS to HTML, although It prompts me to have an XML file. Now, how do XML files get created automatically for the RSS script to pick them up up-to-date? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

    Cheers

    Glad to help.

    Hi Numaria, I'm not quite sure how the feedforall software works. I've never used it, however, it is my understanding that xml is what organizes the information for the rss. If you are using a prepackaged blog such as WordPress or B2evo then they should already have such a file in the software. Hope this helps, sorry it wasn't more helpful.

    Carp RSS by gecko tribe works well, has a free version and a relatively cheap paid version for php. There's also Magpie RSS available at sourceforge - opensource. Both are very easy to configure if you have a reasonable comfort level with PHP.

    Carp has a mysql interface to store data as well as publish it, and they also have a javascript utility to publish rss data as well.

    I use Carp for a few things and I've always been happy with it. They even e-mail me program updates.
