How do I link to a public RSS feed using Frontpage 2003? I want to link
my site to a news RSS feed that updates constantly.

Using a 'link' will load the XML in the browser unless the XML has been
'transformed' meaning the application of style to transform the XML to HTML.
FrontPage does not support this yet. For the time being and in general
transformation requires programming skills using either XSLT or CSS.
Check out a page of Microsoft's feeds [1] and note the rss.xml file that is
loaded appears to make my previous statement sound incorrect. Well my
statement is not incorrect. What you are going to load in your browser is an
XML file that has been transformed using an XSL style sheet named
rsspretty.xsl. This can be confirmed by viewing the rss.xml source.
You can obtain rsspretty.xsl [2] and reuse it to transform your own XML on
your own website. Unless the feeds you want to reuse on your site provide
transformation you will have to parse the XML and apply a transformation to
it yourself before it can be linked to and displayed as HTML.
That's the gist of it at the current point in time...

I use a couple of RSS feeds on one of my pages. Check it out. If it's what
you are looking for, click on "powered by feedroll" and it will take you to
their site where you can customize the feed. Once you check which feed you
want and enter all the data, it will create the html code that needs to be
pasted into Front Page. You can place it anywhere you want in the body.

Javascript is great! Unfortunately, the Search engines are unable to
recognize the RSS javascript feeds.
Is there another way? Thanks in
advance.
