html + rss
hello, this was probably covered but i can't seem to find the right term. I want to set up an area on a site that can be repeatable (making extendable) and i wanted that area to become like an EVENTS section. And this section would be linked to a rss file and everytime the rss would be updated that same events area would be updated also. whats that called? idk if its xhtml, or something but it wont come to my head. i tried google but its not being nice to me.... also any possible tutorials? thanks in advance |

You'll need some sort of RSS parsing capability. This requires server-side programming via PHP or another language to turn the XML into HTML. You could conceivably use XSLT to translate the XML into HTML, but IE doesn't support XSLT, so that's out. I've used an RSS parsing script called "Last RSS" before and it works nicely. There are more robust solutions available than it though. |

hey thanks for the response. i googled long enough and did get to XSL to be my main choice for now. But i was wondering, whats the best way to load an xml document into html? i want to have (like i said before) a section of news but i want the div to auto adjust to the total length of the xml. is there a way to do this? |
