Hi All,
I was wondering if any of you had any ideas of the best way to incorporate RSS into a website. I have jobs databases that I would like to make reader accessible. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,

I made a PHP script which simply writes the RSS XML. Its an easy enough job if you know a server side language like PHP.

Hi Ryan,
PHP is something I'm only familiar with. I've never created code strictly for a website. Is it hard to learn?

Depends on what else you know. Did you want the data to be fresh everytime, or is a statically generated page ok?

I have six job pages that I would want to send an update whenever a position is added to the list. Therefore, I would need a total of six feeds since the jobs index is just links based. There is not an all job page because it would be a huge document.
