rss feeds/ blogs question.
 

Ok.. so, I'm doing this mainstream site & i got this blog on one host & domain & then the main site on another host & domain. How do i get the post's of the blog to show up on an html page for the main site using the rss feed from the blog?

I'd rather have visitors stay on main site rather than have to click link to see blog, & all I want from the blog is the entries/posts to show up on main page of site.. they're on 2 different servers.

i tried blogging once. i didnt work out.

I like the idea of being able to just post & be done with the update for the day rather than have to edit a page & ftp.. makes it more simple somewhat.,

wordpress lets you do future updates.

i dont use wordpress. but bangman does. he would be the person to ask.

or go somewhere where they have a dedicated section on blogging like netpond or greenguy

cool--thanks for the info

You can use javascript to display the RSS feeds on HTML, but the search engines won't see it.

You can use php to either pull the rss and write it to an html file that you include with SSI, or, use php for the page itself and display it inline. Either way, the search engines will see it as page content just fine.

There are a bunch of tools available for inline php - not sure of any that will write the file for an include - haven't looked for that :-)

Javascript i can do. I dont know a single stitch of php. I tried doing it with an iframe, but it's not doing it right, shows the whole blog & I only want the posts & entries I added & need to fit it in a scrollable section so users can scroll down to older entries without scolling the whole main page. If that made sense.

Check this out - should point you in the right direction. Just remember that search engines won't see the content as it's delivered using javascript.
