I'm working on a newspaper site. I've decided that XML and RSS feeds might be my best bet to put daily stories on the front page. I've got that part working using FeedForAll and a javascript (I'm looking for a better script or hopefully to build my own, but that's another topic) http://www.haygoods.net/paper (just a mock up for the display. Long way to go before I hit the design part.) Is there better software that will do the headlines like I have and; Create seperate HTML code for each Feed Item that I can paste into a template (preferrably automatically put the HTML code into the template.) I've got to keep this very simple so when I'm not there, someone else can run the program.
Hi.. Try this.. RSS to Javascript Converter/RSS to HTML Converter You can convert the XML/RSS file to a readable format. Just a small piece of copy paste code!! enjoy!
This site even lets you use Newspaper Covers that update automatically each day.
