I use a little bit of code called Topics-anywhere:

You can see the implementation on my clan's homepage (click the Clan |3eefpile link in sig)

I'm not sure if it will work for you, since it's made for phpBB

Will it still work on my site? cause its not for a forum, if you look i have an "Events" tab and i just want that page to be all the RSS feed from electrofly.com events. just and info page.

Yeah, I am not sure. I doubt it a bit. I know that I tried a few things before I settled on this one.

Check out DynamicDrive.com, they might have something

ok, i think this is what i needed

(the code tags wouldnt show this code...lol )

The text for the rss info is large but i think i should be able to figure out all that.

oh, and i put that all in a table.

Thanx man

reppy to you...+

Don't use a table!
You can probably just set a width on that div

in your CSS file, make a line that's something like:
.message {
float: right;
width: 200px;
margin: 0;
padding: 1em;
}

That ::should:: put it on the right side of the page with a max width of 200 pixels, and a little pad around the text

::EDIT:: AAAGH you're not using CSS?? I just looked at the source for the page... With one that simple, it would be easy to implement

I just put up the page last night, so css isnt there yet
