Re: List of recent posts for a separate page

Thanks for getting back to me, Glen. I'd already looked at that post, 
though.

My situation is that the front page of my site is not Roller and (at 
least currently) not even dynamic. I was hoping that Roller would define 
an endpoint I could access to get back an HTML list of recent post 
titles, so that I could just use that as the source for an iframe. I'd 
prefer to get the list back in reasonable form for presentation on the 
client using CSS (otherwise I suppose I could just use the Atom feed). 
If there isn't any direct source for this now, I suppose I could add a 
special page to my template to generate what I want using the Velocity 
snippet, and use that special page as the source for the iframe. Is that 
the best way to get what I want?

It's not clear offhand how I'd add such a special page to my Roller 
configuration without stepping on anything, so if that is the best way 
to do things I'd appreciate any pointers.

Regards,
