If you folks want something like this, i'll be happy to code it up...shouldn't be too hard. I've been working a lot with parsing xml feeds. We'd just parse the feed, and for each item, save the values to the topics db in a structured way. We would need to have a forum account for these posts...like "forum_name XML Bot" or something.<

pacco - is there a specific RSS feed you want?

what is your level of skill with asp/vbscript and SQL?
If it is good, i can just send you the one i'm using that gets info from an RSS feed, puts each item into a variable. (of course you can save these variables to the snitz db.

If you don't have those skills, I'll try to code it up roughly for you when i have spare time.<
