For the Love of My Country

Heck, I searched the web for ages trying to find a solution to my problem.  I wanted to display an RSS feed from a blog on one of my websites.  Check out the links to see how it works.  Now, I've found a tight little product, provided by www.dynamicdrive.com.

Here's their description:
This script is the fastest way to display RSS feeds from other sites on your own, period. It uses Google's Ajax Feed API to host the desired RSS feeds on Google's servers, so all that's left for you is to insert some code on your page to show them. Using gAjax RSS Feeds Displayer, you can display results from multiple feeds intermixed, sort them in a variety of ways, specify which components of each RSS entry to display, and more. No more hurdles in your way to showing RSS feeds on your site!

It's completely free, and best of all, there are no adverts or anything at the bottom of your feed.  This is what web-developers and the rest of us like.  If something is good enough, it doesn't need advertising; satisfied users will be delighted to promote it on their own websites.

I guarantee, this little number works a treat.  Just make sure you follow the instructions carefully, as there are a number of places you could go wrong.  A few tips:

- Just add the CSS into your existing style-sheet.
- Adjust the CSS, what I did was list-type:none; and margin-left:-30px;
- make sure you add in: 1) the blog you want to get the feed from, 2) the Google API key, 3) the correct path to the gfeedfetcher.js file.

Yeah, blimmin well go for it mate!
