    Great work ...... i appreciate you for your hard work...

    at the same time there is a problem as well.......Let me explain...

    Generally when we click on the dynamic content we expect a new window to get opened .....but that is nt happening here...instead that link in getting opened in the same window(which i dont like coz i dont want my visitors to get out of my site completly)...

    Is there any tweak or additional code to be inserted so that all the links will get opened in a seperate window??

    regards,
    boon

    it's a great program i'd like to use on my site as well.
    I am wondering about that too..I wish someone would answer that question..

    eg. a simple php hello world [hello.php] :
    <html>
<body>

<?php
echo "Hello World";
?>

</body>
</html>
    Code (markup):
    doesn't give me an 'hello world' when pasted anywhere in my webpage.

    I tried an include

    <?php include("hello.php"); ?>
    Code (markup):
    didn't work either.
    Sorry for being off topic and such a newbie but any help with that would allow use of Ysf1's great Rss display code.
    EDIT: Yes, my webserver is PHP enabled

    Don't take offense, but did you change the file extension to .php?
    so instead of filename.html, it would be filename.php ?
    The example you showed should work.

    Hello,
    Folk, I am very new to RSS and really need to know how to use it.

    What I want to do is the following,

    Display the 10 most recent posts from about 30 wp blogs on my site home page (non-wp).

    Have the most recent always on top and have it refresh the list everytime the page is loaded.

    I would like it to display something like this.

    <--Post Title-->
    <--Blog Title-->

    I have read through much of this post but I can't seem to make heads or tail of it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have two questions. Perhaps someone could help me.

    1) I want to set up two different RSS feeds on the same page. I set up one and it works fine, but when I set up the second the page doesn't display and I get an error:
    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare startelement() (previously declared in /home/collegec/public_html/testmain.php:121) in /home/collegec/public_html/testmain.php on line 193

    2) Is it possible to shorten the description portion of the rss feed to only a certain number of characters?

    Thanks.

    would someone be willing to create a small site with as many rotating feeds as possible related to hillary clinton. I would be willing to pay a small amount i dont expect it would take to much work. Just be sure to put url of presedenthillaryclinton.com on the top I just need the code to paste onto my free hosting account.

    I also use feedburner, which gives you the code for your blog/site feeds to insert in webpages.

    Or is this about using someone else's RSS feed to create content on your site?
