I was wondering if anyone has ever used the rss display boxes found at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/rssdisplaybox/index.htm

I've been trying to get my feeds from my ubb forums to show up and for the life of me I can't figure out why nothing shows up. When the page loads I get a quick message saying its initiating the rss display box but nothing shows up.

I just use LastRSS on my homepage and drop it into a table to get the desired effect; I prefer this over other solutions as it caches data for a set period (so I don't end up pounding various sites rss feeds looking for new data).

Thanks for getting back to me. It seems like I have the script working when I use the example feeds. When I plug in the feed from my ubb threads it doesn't generate anything. The feed should be:

http://www.louisianaoutdoors.com/forums/cache/rss17.xml

Can you test it out to see if you are getting anything? Thanks.

I'm no expert on rss feeds but when I plug the url of the feed into my browser I get a page not found error. I have the feed enabled. Am I doing something wrong or is there something else going on? Thanks.
