I use this one: http://www.feedforall.com/free-php-script.htm Mostly because I searched for an easy one to use and this one came up a lot - I had no experience with RSS feeds and found this one to be pretty easy.
Can anybody give me a rough explanation as to what rss is? I've searched the internet and this forum but I still can't get it in layman terms. Sorry for the thread hijack
RSS = really simple syndication VERY simply put - it means grabbing a feed (a bunch of data) from another site and displaying it on yours. Take a look here: http://www.creditratewatchers.com/best-consumer-credit-cards.php If you scroll down and look for "Latest News" down at the bottom - that article is actually being fed onto the site from another source. What other specific questions do you have? That's the basic gist of it.
Cheers bud Just to check I understand what you mean, using RSS feeds I could make a page on my website showing all the latest BBC news stories which updates every time they do?
Yes, that's right. You need to find a feed and use an RSS reader to format it for display - but you're right.
