Palz, I wanna make output like this :
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/rssdisplaybox/index.htm
But the contents are from my website, other web can publish my fresh content, with just a single line (just like include my content to their website easily)
is it possible?
is this named rss?
thanks for your information.

Are you talking about an include?Maybe you're not posting in the right category. If it's an include you're looking for, you can have an ajax include script which'll extract the contents from a webpage.

It's not called RSS. This is an example of RSS

I have made the script like this :
<script src="http://www.suarabola.com/rss/script.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<iframe id="myframe" src="http://www.suarabola.com/rss/" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" style="width:450px; height:200px; color:#000000; background-color:#EEEEEE; padding-left:5px;"></iframe>
it works, but doesn't seems to be what I want :(
I use frame for this stuff, any other solutions?
What is RSS mean for? Bookmarks?
thanks pals

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS
RSS (most commonly translated as "Really Simple Syndication" but sometimes "Rich Site Summary") is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format.[2] An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed",[3] or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship.
It's possible, but that include script is a content box, it's not as simple as just one line of code to include RSS feeds, but you can take the script directly. Download the zip file from that page:
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/rssdisplaybox/index.htm
Then, put this code in where you wanna put the RSS box.
<script type="text/javascript">
var showbbc=new rssdisplaybox("bbc", "bbcid", "someclass")
showbbc.set_items_shown(10, 5) //Fetch 10 entries, but display only 5 at a time (pagination links auto created)
showbbc.set_template("titles") //Use "titles" template, which outputs title + category
showbbc.start() //Required: start script
</script>
In the rssdisplaybox.js file, you need to replace this line of code
var rssoutputscript="http://www.suarabola.com/rss/"
HTH:)
Reading your OP... Are you trying to *catch* RSS feeds and put them on your website, or do you want to *build* RSS feeds for other websites to use?

He's trying to put one box which displays the RSS content on a separate webpage. There's no easy solution to it tho.
well, that's what I thought at first, but this
(just like include my content to their website easily)
made me think that he wants to provide content to other websites, not another page on his own website. When he said he wants to "make output" like RSS boxes, I think he meant on other people's (subscribers') sites.
sysout, if that's what you're after, then I have to tell you that when you make an RSS feed, you send the info about your new content - but it's up to the other websites to read and display it. You can't control that.
However, a solution might be to display your RSS feed (using RSS boxes or whatever method) on your own webpage, then provide your subscribers with an <iframe> code to embed it on their site. That way, you can get the feed to look like you want it to, but your subscribers can still include it on their pages easily.
(If I'm wrong about what you're trying to do, sorry! Didn't mean to distract the conversation. :) )

yeah bro, this is what I mean, so users can get the fresh content of my website, put it to their blog/website, and the content updated automatically from my website.
Using Iframe ? :( any javascript suggestion?
thanks palz
what I was trying to say is that you can't "send" content to someone else's website: they have to "take" it from yours. All you can do is make it as easy as possible for them to do it in a way you like.
For example:
1) Build your RSS feed (.xml file). There are tutorials out there to help you -and rss is as simple as html. There are also services (some free, some not) that will do it for you, but I've never tried any of them.
2) Use RSS boxes (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/rssdisplaybox/index.htm) (or another script) to display your RSS feed on a page on your own website.
3) Write a code snippet for other webmasters / bloggers to embed your RSS feed on their site. something like (simplified):
<iframe src="http://www.mysite.com/rss/rssfeed.xml" height="250px" width="500px"></iframe>
