    Hi,

    I was wondering would it be possible to pull in an rss feed from a blog such as a blogger blog into a div on a seperate website, kind of like what google reader does except to a regular site,
    Basically I have a regular catalogue site and a seperate community blog and I want a way to unify the 2 without coding a blog into the catalogue site.

    yes if you know if your scripting - can be done with php and asp

    basically taking the external feed, and parsing it on the second site - quite easy

    remember google is your friend - http://magpierss.sourceforge.net/

    magpie uses js as far as I can remember so there is very little scripting for the user to do. IT provides both the JS and CSS for you and you can edit the CSS quite easily via their backend.

    It has a security issue with not having any login but that can be resolved via .htaccess easily enough...so it ain't exactly teh win. Whatever that means.
