    Well, right now I need to stay updated with a few websites (election stuff). How can I like get the latest articles and put it on my website? I just need it in the most basic html form and all on one page on my website so I can access it easily via mobile. So far, I used dapper, but it doesn't exactly give me an xml file that's needed for php SimpleXML. I am willing to learn, I jsut need to know where can I find the things I need to learn adn what is it called.

    I would use their API and have your site ping them automatically via a CRON job and update the RSS feed automatically based on the increments of your CRON jobs.

    Look around the simple xml functions in PHP. Its very easy to parse them that way.

    What would it cost to make someone setup the rss2html script and cronjob? And of course explain in plain (laymen)language how to ad feeds?
