Although writing a simple RSS reader isn't very difficult, you might wish to
check out RSS Bandit, which is an open-source project. It is written with
C#.

Start here:
http://www.rssbandit.org/

Then go to MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ml02172003.asp

And finally download the code:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/rssbandit

re: rss feed reader code


Hi, thanks for the quick reply, however, I think that I failed to give
enough information as to my request. I'm actually looking to read from an
rss feed, and place the read data into a webpage, so I need code to read
from an rss feed, and place it into my aspx webpage.

I'm using .net and c#.

re: rss feed reader code


Reading RSS is quite easy with .net.

You can actually do it with two lines of code, and bind to a datagrid for
example

ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXml(URLpath, XmlReadMode.Auto);

If you want to implement a timeout option on the read then this is a good
approach

re: rss feed reader code


Hey,

Have a look at these two:

RSS.NET - http://www.rssdotnet.com/
Atom.NET - http://atomnet.sourceforge.net/

Granted you can use the built in XML functionality in the dataset or
..NET but these components abstract much of the grunt work
