Stephen Ostermiller's RSS Reader

RSS Reading software that can run on your webserver as a CGI script

Design Goals

  • Run in a webserver as a CGI script
  • XML configuration
  • Multithreaded RSS download
  • Cache each rss feed for a specified time period before downloading it again
  • Display feeds in vertical columns
  • Ability to mix feeds in the same column.
  • Sort feeds by date if desired.
  • Strip text out of feeds with regular expressions.
  • Filter items out of feeds with regular expressions.
  • Filter out JavaScript, links, images, and unwanted formatting from feeds
  • Allow formatting, links, or images on a feed by feed basis

You can get a better idea of what it will do by looking at the example. If you would like to use this rss reader, you should download it.
