I would like to have some sort of Automatic Australian news feed on my site where the news just posts itself somehow is this possible. Here are some Australian news site's that possibly the feed could come from. I would really appreciate some help with this maybe there is somebody out there that has allready done this .... i have no idea where to start with this one.

Alternatively you can use FreeContent Webdegist feature

like this (For ABC):

Do I use the XOOPS headlines module to integrate this input? I have never ever used headlines module I usually delete it but I do have it available this time. What is the input I put into the module for it to recognize abc news feed.

Xoopsheadlines is what you can use and you can view a small demo on my site to see how it looks.

Also, you can head on over to http://www.syndic8.com/ to see if any of the feeds they list are of any interest you.

Good Luck

Stewdio,

You say check out your site for an example of feeds....but all I get is an Apache test page when I look.
