Running more that one RSS feed on a page
Hi there,
this could well be a dumb question but then if you don't ask you don't learn. Could someone let me know if you can run more than one RSS feed on a page - ie get feeds from different sites and then have them running on your site. Have set one feed up but then I don't seem to be able to put up a second feed. Thanks in advance. |

Re: Running more that one RSS feed on a page
yeah you can, I have done that before but I think you need to link to it rather than just using the meta bit in the head tag. for example you could have 2 rss links on a page which users could drag into their browsers

Re: Running more that one RSS feed on a page
Thanks for the reply voodoochilli - not quite sure what you mean about dragging the rss link into their browser - would that mean no dynamic link.
The link to the page in question is www.rise.ie/index_rss.php There is some javascript embedded in head section of the page calling a function. Sorry about vagueness am new to rss so if you know any good tuts on this would be appreciated. Matt |

Re: Running more that one RSS feed on a page
Quote:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Your news feed title" href="address to your feed.xml">next you simply need a link to the rss feeds somwhere, like on one of my sites there is this link http://www.voodoochilli.net/rss.xml if thats a graphical link, people can just drag it into a rss compatible browser/news reader |

Re: Running more that one RSS feed on a page
I am not looking for people to feed rss files off this.
I just want people to read feeds from two sites. Does that still mean I need an xml file... Boy am I confused - just used a script from Dynamic Drive so hacked at this and thought that I'd set up dynamic content for the site. Am going to have to do some reading up on this - any pointers... Feel like a bit of an ![]() |

Re: Running more that one RSS feed on a page
I think you just need to link to the 2 rss files, which are normaly xml files and indicate to the browser that there are rss files using the method I listed above. I am not an expert on this so maybe someone else can help you better.
This page looks quite useful, give it a read: http://searchenginewatch.com/showPage.html?page=2175271 |
