I noticed that there were a couple of links to and from my webpage which were to a German blog and I really wanted to know what they were saying. However, the only way to translate was to copy and paste and do a bunch of mumbo jumbo.

To install, simply modify the script to point to your blog index page and change the .phps to a .htm or a .html To setup a translation, simply link to the file.

This is written in PHP, is extremely simple and very configurable. Just download the source zip file, chmod 777 post.xml and you are ready to go. The php in index.php can be copied and pasted into any html or php page to add this board to that page.

It saved me the headache of writing my own! Some of the features include: RDF spec”>RDF “feeds” are, they are basically ways for a site to make it easy for other people (like you and me) to “syndicate” their content, getting headlines and possibly short excerpts of their articles. There are thousands of sites which produce these news pages, including my own, Lockergnome, GeoShell.com, ShellScape, SlashDot and more general sites like Internet News, and more! The output is simple divs with links and class names. All you have to do to use it is “include it” in your php script and then call the function.
