This is verrry nice!!!

However, since my site is music related, I wonder if I can "pull" data from another source like:

http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/

http://datadragon.com/day/

Anyway, it's great mod indeed! :)

Take the RSS feeds from those sites and parse them through that program so they're html and it would be pretty much the same as this.

like here is one for your first link This Daily Music

Sorry to go off topic :o

Just updated with additional code to make it as 2nd post of each thread

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2008/12/8.png

Might be useful to use it as a sponsored advert, by adding a text ad to the bottom of the code ??

Enjoy :D

Code:

<div align="center"><!--This Day in History by TheFreeDictionary.com-->

<div style="width:750px;position:relative;background-color:;padding:4px">

<div style="font:bold 15pt '';color:#000000">This Day in History</div>

<style>

#TodaysHistory {width:100%;border:none;background-color:}

#TodaysHistory H3 {margin-top:0px;font:bold 12pt '';color:#000000}

#TodaysHistory TD {font:normal 10pt '';color:#000000}

#TodaysHistory A {color:#0000FF}

</style>

<script language="javascript"

src="http://img.tfd.com/daily/history-top.js?0"></script>

<div style="font:normal 8pt '';color:#000000">

</div></div>

Ok I am new to all these adding things to the site but I like this. Is there anyway do you think that it could be changed to do all Disney information.
I run a Disney site and would love it to do "This day in History" for it.

If you think it can and you can walk me through it I would love it.

Thank you,

Scott

Hi Scottny

Thanks for your idea, however the information comes directly from the http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ site.
I have not control over the content unfortunately :(
