News Crawler?


:welcome Hi, what you want is an RSS Reader. That way you can pick up as many syndicated News Feeds as you want. I would recommend a script, but I'm not sure about your server.


Thanks BigRob for your reply. As for my server I have the Linux/Unix package off of ixwebhosting. About the RSS reader, just install that on my site and it will work? Thanks LeVanay


Could someone please help me with the RSS reader bit? I need something to scroll the latest news headlines on a banner at the top of my webpage. Will I be able to install it on my Desktop and then transfer it to my Server? I don't understand how I am supposed to work this thing out. Some guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. LeVanay


hi levanay its a script that you install on your server. check your server documentation. you should have the ability to run a scripting language like asp or php. then you install an rss reader script on your server. then you place the code on your webpage. this should give you an idea: http://www.rssreader.com/rssreader.htm


I have downloaded and unzipped the file. Where should I install and place this file. I am able to find the cgi-bin file on my server. Thanks LeVanay


this [url=http://www.sharpreader.net/]rss reader[/url] looks good.


Anyone Please ???


Some servers block easy access to CGI-BIN ... Call your server and ask them how to find it... Hope that works!
