best way to create applets usable on other sites

Hi

I have some areas of my website I want to make available to other site
owners to include in their website (for example, Top 10 list, etc)

What's the best way to generate something that can be used by any site
owner, no matter what language they use, but that I can control the way the
data is presented (example, allow a select number of themes for the inserted
code).

Any ideas / examples would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Dan

the only universal solution is to provide a url that returns an image. the
next woudl be a webservice that returns html, but then the other sites would
need to code a wrapper library.

you coudl do the webservice and supply client code in the most common
languages: php, python, ruby, asp, and .net

Bruce,

Thanks for the reply.

When you say "url that returns an image", do you mean in the same way that
some of the CAPTCHA routines work? IE, request a url, and then the page
changes the content type to "jpeg/image" ?!

I could do that, but it would make for quite a complicated page to code up
an image that represents my Top 10 table.

The other problem I can see, is that if it's returned as an image, I can't
make anything clickable, is that right?!

Cheers
Dan
