Do any of you have experience with RSS feed readers to be placed on a static HTML page? Likes? Dislikes? Recommendations?
u mean upgrading the static html page to be able to be read by a newsreader? i could create you a custom script that does this, so you could stick to your plain-html page and still have a feed from it. PM me but be sure i am not the wellfare
You can do it via javascript code. There are functions available over the web to convert the RSS to Javascript codes. You just need to place the javascript code on your html. It just a piece of code like google adsense which shows you the feed.
I use an RSS feed on my static web pages: http://jp29.org/rss.htm Most modern Browsers also function as feed readers. If you see the little orange icon displayed in a Browser header menu bar (often the address window) it indicates there is an RSS feed available. Clicking on the icon will display a Live Bookmark window (which may contain links to updated content, depending on how your Browser is configured). You can then either just read the feed or subscribe to it in which case the icon will display in your Browser header accompanied by the feed title. The bookmarked icon remains visible and usable in your Browser until removed (via a mouse right click) ........ you can check for automatic content updates for bookmarked pages by simply clicking on the appropriate icon at any time. Check my Home page to see it in action. James
