Hello, yesterday a have a businnes reunion with a mayor cell phone product company (ringtones, wallpapers, videos,e tc) They want to promote some stuff in my forum, and use information of the post, to send it by SMS....

The aske me if my forum supports RSS FEED in order to send some selected post to them. I know that vb use rss feed. But i dont know how it works, if you can make that some sections send the information.

Can someone explain me the features of the RSS in VB?

You need to get the url of the feeds from the mobile company you speak off

Add "external.php?type=RSS2" at the end of your forum's URL: eg. http://www.yourforum.com/external.php?type=RSS2.

Add what? A link to the feed? Just create a forum and set it as a link.
