How to make news bar?


Recommended Posts

@xtremee

I think what they mean is what news do you want to be in your newsbar, you say that you want it to automatically update with the news, which news would that be?

1. News about your site and latest updates.

2. Real World news (i.e. BBC News, CNN, Fox, Sky etc.)

If its option 1, then there's no way to automatically add the data without input from you, you can of course make things easier with using a mysql database and form system to input the updates, but at the end of the day someone will have to add that data.

If its option 2 you want, with just general news, than this is very easy to do and does not require you to do anything once you have made the basic script, just google including an RSS feed into your webpage, you should get a few results, then all you do is use the tutorial and substitute the RSS feed with the one of the news site you want.

Hope that cleared things up!
