Syndicate Yahoo Rss Headlines 21.04.08
I have about 30 different sites for 30 different actors. I want a script that will use Yahoo News RSS feed, query the feed once an hour (cron?) and update each of my 30 news.html pages with the latest news stories:
Headline
Excerpt
Date
for each actor news page.
So I guess query for whatever is new that hour (if any) and bump the oldest news story off my page. Show 10 story excerpts at a time.
Here is a good example: music-artists.org/fergie/news.html
I also want to be able to link to the story headline from another page on the site(s) like this: music-artists.org/fergie/index.html (the News/headline section)
I’m assuming a database could store each new entry. I suppose I can use 1 database with 30 tables for each site (same server)?
Some resources:
http://developer.yahoo.com/php/
http://developer.yahoo.com/rss/
I have a Yahoo API key if that’s needed…
