    Hi,

    Brand new to RSS and it's creation, so I have a beginner's question to ask:

    On my podcast website I have a div menu which I use as an Archive for all the podcasts. It has links to the items, title, date and description. Very basic, but it does the job.

    Now, it's this that I want in my RSS feed, and it's this that I have mirrored in FeedForAll. But my question is this:

    Is there a simple way to create an RSS feed of that div menu that will automatically update when I edit the HTML of said div menu, saving me the hassle of updating the HTML on the site and then mirroring that data for the feed using FeedForAll.

    I hope that makes sense?

    Thanks

    Hi Apothocary
    Do you manually update the html of the div menu, or are you using a database? 'coz if you are manually updating, I don't see how you can easily automate the process of creating an rss feed of it.

    One solution could be to actually use an rss feed for your menu. You just need to parse it and display it as html or use xsl style sheets to turn the xml into html. That way you can just use your feed with Feedforall.
