I am not sure how to explain this as I am not a coder, but could the answer be to run a program that ran every thirty minutes or so to read the seperate feeds and write them to a new seperate .xml feed file? It may not be possible, but it seems like it should be somehow. I have a program that will do it and write it to a php file, but that doesnt work for syndicating the feed to other sites, only to my own. --- In [email protected], Julian Bond <julian_bond@v...> wrote: > browser1 <[email protected]> wrote: > >OK here is what I want to do and I cant figure out how to do it. > > > >I have several different elements I want to include within an rss > >feed.
