Hi everyone. I was going to buy the Feedforall, but I'm not sure if that takes care of what I have to do. I am trying to study up on rss feeds, but I have no idea what they're talking about. The only thing I have caught on to is how to subscribe to a feed! I want to put jewelry related news articles on this page of my site: http://www.jeanfrancesca.com/information-center-jewelry-news-articles.html There is one article there right now because I started the page last night. I want to put an rss feed button on the page and also on all the news article pages. I went to a site yesterday that did the button for you, but it said that I didn't have my tags on the page. I am supposed to put the content tag, id tag, title tag, etc. Does Feedforall take care of all that? Also, how does Feedforall turn the url I gave above into a page that is ready for an rss feed? I need a very easy program that does everything, including the tags. Thank you for any help you can give me.
Jean

FeedForAll will help you to easilly create RSS feeds, that you can post up on your webserver. You can put a link on your webpage(s) to let visitors know that they can subscribe to your RSS feed.
We also have a free PHP utility called rss2html.php, that will allow you to automatically include items from your RSS feed on a webpage.
If you are new to RSS and still trying to get it all figured out, there are some great articles here in the 'Articles' section:

Thank you for your help. I downloaded the trial version of Feedforall yesterday and I am going to purchase it today. It was the only thing that validated my rss feed. I tried everything for days, and nothing I made would validate. I think the problem is in my web utility program where I create the web pages. When I tried doing xml right there, the feed wouldn't validate no matter how accurate I was. I used the wizard in Feedforall, and I validated on the first try. Awesome. I have a suggestion though. It would be nice to have the whole start to finish package in feedforall. For example, after you make your rss feed, you're done. How about adding some features like creating an xml button, links to where to submit your feed, directions for putting the buttons on your site and having people subscribe, etc. Just a suggestion. I'm buying Feedforall either way because it's worth the heck I went through trying to validate the xml on my own.
