Same question again - anybody has an idea how to create your own RSS Feed from scratch ? I searched far and wide and all I found was loads of rss readers, free rss hosting sites and tickers - but not ONE GOOD site that describes the whole process from a DIY angle.
Any of you has done it ?? Can you direct me to some good site for beginners ? Thanks, m^e |

Pretty sure that you just need to format the information into XML and provide a link to the XML document.
Pretty sure you can set your system up to update the XML documnt when you update your news or announcements. Here is a sample: http://fun.forum500.com/index2.php?option=...SS1.0&no_html=1 CODE <!-- generator="FeedCreator 1.7.2" --> - <rdf:RDF> - <channel rdf:about="http://fun.forum500.com"> <title>Powered by Mambo 4.5.2</title> <description>Mambo site syndication</description> <link>http://fun.forum500.com</link> <image rdf:resource="http://fun.forum500.com/images/M_images/mambo_rss.png"/> <dc:date>2005-12-17T09:42:34+01:00</dc:date> - <items> - <rdf:Seq> <rdf:li rdf:resource="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1&Itemid=0"/> <rdf:li rdf:resource="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2&Itemid=0"/> <rdf:li rdf:resource="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3&Itemid=0"/> <rdf:li rdf:resource="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4&Itemid=0"/> <rdf:li rdf:resource="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5&Itemid=0"/> </rdf:Seq> </items> </channel> - <image rdf:about="http://fun.forum500.com/images/M_images/mambo_rss.png"> <title>Powered by Mambo 4.5.2</title> <link>http://fun.forum500.com</link> - <url> http://fun.forum500.com/images/M_images/mambo_rss.png </url> </image> - <item rdf:about="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1&Itemid=0"> <dc:format>text/html</dc:format> <dc:source>http://fun.forum500.com</dc:source> <title>Welcome to Mambo</title> - <link> http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=c...w&id=1&Itemid=0 </link> - <description> If you've read anything at all about Content Management Systems (CMS), you'll probably know at least three things: CMS are... </description> </item> - <item rdf:about="http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2&Itemid=0"> <dc:format>text/html</dc:format> <dc:source>http://fun.forum500.com</dc:source> <title>Newsflash 1</title> - <link> http://fun.forum500.com/index.php?option=c...w&id=2&Itemid=0 </link> - <description> Mambo 4.5 is 'Power In Simplicity'!.

PureHeart I've been looking all over the web for that information and M^E just beat me to the punch on posting here. That Link and the information that Vujsa put up answered all my questions. Thank you very much both of you and to M^E for posting the question. I can now offer the world a RSS feed of my site, of my own making and not the one that Mambo creats, or more pointedly I can modify what the Mambo RSS syndication module outputs.
Thanks again... |

I remember finding an abundance of tutorials on RSS feeds and found a really good one (I can't remember where it was now, though) that showed how to make one that updates from a MySQL database whenever the script is called and outputs it as an rss/xml document. I still have and use that script and if you would like a copy please PM me. I was also going to make an online script that will automatically create an RSS or Podcast feed and must get a move along completing that and other scripts I said I would do.
