asp rss feed.

I have a feed: http://examplefeed.asp and I want it as an rss feed on my website.
I want to be able to control the number of news stories that show.

I found a script that does it below, but it doesn't work. I think it might be because it is php not asp. I don't know much about this. Also it doesn't let me control the number of stories shown. Can anyone help please....

Class RSSParser: 	2 October 2002

Author:				Duncan Gough

Overview:			An RSS parser that uses PHP and freely available RSS feeds to add fresh news content to your site.

Installation:		Decompress the file into your webroot and include it from whichever pages on which you want
					to display the data, e.g;

					include("rss.php");

Usage:				As above, just include the rss.php file from within your PHP page, and the news will appear.
					You should find the HTML code in the functions endElement(), show_title() and show_list_box() below,
					feel free to modify these to match your site.

PHP:

 

If your page is ASP, you will have to find an ASP XML parser.
If you're not sure what you're doing and don't want to mess with it - use my simple Feed 2 JavaScript tool. Just a couple of generated lines of code. Allows you to control the number of entries and other options as well.

 

my page is php, but the rss file has a .asp extension. It doesn't seem to work in the rss code.

 

The feed to javascript tool didn't seem to work for it either when I put in on my page.

 

I tried it on another rss feed and it works fine. But quite popular ones don't work at all.
