How do I set up an RSS feed on my website?

I'm doing some research on XML and doing RSS as a subdivision. I found lots of info on setting up the syndication, but haven't seen anything on importing the RSS to a webpage, specifically www.ils.unc.edu/~whitdoug/final/. Do you need Javascript or PHP or something like that to do that? Is that a server-side thing? Does it depend on where the RSS is coming from originally (I would think not)?

Doug,





If you want to scrape other feeds you need them on your server first. (1 line command, in a cron job)





If they're your own, you can read your own rss feed in many different ways!





You can use AJAX to read your own feed, You can process it with php or perl or any other language the unc supports!





You are lucky because the normal rules for AJAX don't allow you to read a feed from another site, without the assistance of a server program.





If you're interested in AJAX, head on over to http://jquery.com for the coolest AJAX/dhtml library!





or use google's new api for rss mashup! http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/

It seems to be the favourite RSS script for a lot of webmasters and it's free as well.
