I'm new to this RSS thing, but I'm trying to create a website for my husband's podcast. I want to display only the latest 7 podcasts on the homepage and then have a monthly archive list in the navigation.

Of course, using the information from an RSS feed.

I've looked all over the place and I can't find anything. A script in php or javascript would be ideal.

I've found addons for blogging services, but they're too specific. I need a more generic script that will work with any properly formatted RSS feed. I can add it to another PHP script I have, or put it straight in the html (if it's javascript)

I can't be the only person in the world who needs this, can I?? What is it that everyone else knows but I don't?

If I understood you correctly, you're still looking for a RSS parser to parse and display x number of items from a RSS feed. If so and your server supports PHP, LastRSS (http://lastrss.webdot.cz/) is a nice PHP script for this. This is also the script we use to realize a RSS ticker script (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/rsstickerajax/index.htm).
