Hi I have a RSS feed for a website (http://board.hpminecraft.de/feed.php) I want to display the feed on a Advanced computer, or just a computer with a monitor. How can this be done? Thanks!

from my non existant knowlage of rss feeds , but some knowlage of web based languages and xml , i'd say all you need is to occationaly reed the page using the http api and phrase the xml of that page to show up properly on the screen

so a xml phraser is the main thing you'd need

Except for that it's called an XML parser. Don't want to be a dick here, I just want WaffleGamur to be able to find your suggestions on the interwebs. :)/>
