I just want to say THANK YOU to the group for turning me onto jQuery
RSS (embedding an RSS feed on a web page). Took me five minutes to
implement it and another five minutes to customize it.
Have a look "UF News Releases" (pulling from the Technology category)
http://test.innovationsquare.ufl.edu/_hub/
This is what I'm using...
http://www.jquery4u.com/plugins/jquery-rss-feed-display-live/
It's been months since the last time I was present at a Developers
meeting... I'll be attending these meetings every time from now on ;)
Thanks a bunch,
Al Kirby
UF Designer
