RSS-XML-Javascript Feedback into HTML

[Zachariah]

This will show the last 5 threads in Forum "1" with the thread creator.
external.php?type=JS&forumids=1&limit=5&orderby=lastpost

There is tons of different data you can pull per thread. (The EX: link is fake)

This is crude, but you can make a template around the data.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.yoursite.com/forums/external.php?type=JS&forumids=1&limit=5&orderby=lastpost"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

i =0 ;
for (t in threads)
{
    document.write(' + <font size="1"><a href="', URL, 'showthread.php?t=', threads[t].threadid, '" target="_self"><span style="text-decoration: none">', threads[t].title, '</span></a>&nbsp;(', threads[t].poster, ')</font><br />');
}
</script>

There is a lot of info on the subject "external.php?type=JS"
