How to display a News Feed on my web site

[Mike Owen]

Does anybody know how I can display a news feed such as:

http://p.moreover.com/cgi-local/page...0news&o=rss002

and others on my VB.Net web site?

Is there any code available that I can use to do this?
Thanks, Mike.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your post.

The simplest way to display rss feeds on your ASP.NET website is using the
new Data Source control XmlDataSource, for example:

<asp:XmlDataSou rce id="XmlDataSour ce1" DataFile="msdn. xml"
XPath="rss/channel/item" runat="server" />

<asp:DataList id="DataList1" runat="server" DataSourceId="X mlDataSource1">
<ItemTemplate >
<b><%# XPath("pubDate" ) %> - <%# XPath("title") %> </b>
<br/>
<%# XPath("descript ion") %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:DataList>

Also, you may take a look at following article which describes how to
create a User Control to display rss feeds:
