Hi,

I would like to display an RSS feed from a website on my website, but I want to hand code a solution rather than use a widget.

Basically this is a learning task I have set myself.

My question is how can I load the RSS feeds into a 'variable'.

I want to then use XSLT to convert the feed into HTML.

I have found the XmlDataSource Class, but does this only work with IE?

I need to work across all the common browsers on a Linux server.


Thanks for any advice on achieving this.


It's most appreciated!

The XmlDataSource is a .NET component, it won't run on a linux server. What language are you using ? PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby ?

Hi pritaeas,

It would be PHP buddy.

If you can recommend something it would be great!
