A tool to allow you to display RSS feeds on your website using Javascript.

This tool is now available at http://feeds.theblogresource.com/ - Javascript RSS Feeds

The tool below will help you format a feed's display with the information you want to use on your web site. All you need to enter is the URL for the RSS source, and select the desired options below.

First, be sure to preview the feed to verify the content and format. Once the content is displayed how you like, just use the generate javascript button to get your code. Once the content looks okay, move on to our style tool to make it pretty.
