Adding a live feed code


ag_man

Recommended Posts

I am creating my "new" website and would like to include a live feed from my blog (separate website). Thus, when I update my blog, it would also feed into a space (or cell) on my "new" website homepage. Any ideas/suggestions on what coding would work to do this?

 

I am a designer more than a code writer and have not been able to figure this one out yet.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

 

Cheers,

Does your blog have an RSS feed? If so, you could use PHP to grab the data from the RSS feed and display it on your new website.

 

You can probably find tutorials on this by searching for "PHP parse RSS" or similar -- I've used SimpleXML in the past to accomplish this. I did a two part video tutorial on this that covers parsing an XML feed with PHP and Javascript. It's called "Use PHP, jQuery & AJAX to Load XML Data: Part 1" and is available to KillerSites University (http://www.killersites.com/university) subscribers under PHP > Misc PHP Videos.
