Setup

Server side support

This script requires that you have access to PHP on your webserver.

Creating RSS box and specify url of feed

This scripts loads content from an external RSS file into a div on your page. The first you have to do is to put in an empty div where you want the RSS box to appear. Example:

Then you need to specify

The url to your RSS source
Which div you want the RSS data to be placed
How many items you want to read from the source
Time between each item is shown in the box.

All this is something you specify by calling a Javascript function named "insertAjaxContent". Example:

insertAjaxContent('rssBox','http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/rss/dhtmlgoodies.xml',5,3);

"rssBox" refers to the empty div you created, Then we have the url to the external RSS feed. I have specified that I only want the 5 newest items to be shown and the script should show an item for 3 seconds before switching to the next one.

Layout

The script uses plain CSS for the layout. This is the CSS for the demo:

#rssBox{
  width:300px;
  margin:5px;
  float:right;
  height:300px;
  border:1px dotted #317082;
  padding:3px;
  font-size:0.8em;
  background-color:#E2EBED;

}
.rssBoxDate{
  display:none;  /* I don't want to show the date */
}
.rssBoxHeading{  /* Heading of RSS item */
  font-weight:bold;
  color:#317082;
  margin:0px;
}
.rssBoxDescription{  /* Description of RSS item */

}
.rssBoxLink{  /* Read more link */
  color:#F00;
  text-decoration:none;
}
.rssBoxLink:hover{  /* Read more link - mouse over */
  text-decoration:underline;
}

Javascript variables

You have two Javascript variables available:

var rssBoxTxt_readMore = 'Read more';
var rssBoxOpenLinksInNewWindow = true;

rssBoxTxt_readMore = Link label, i.e. the "Read more" link.
rssBoxOpenLinksInNewWindow = Open "Read more" links in new window or not. true = new window, false = same window

If one of the products will not be available for any excuse, post that information on your web site. A great way to upset your potential customers is to get them purchase something and not tell them that it will not arrive for a lot of weeks. That is why if their item is on back-order, you must give your customers to offer the chance to select another product.

Decide on a name containing real meaning. Your company name is the brand name as well as your brand name should correspond with your prospects what products you will be selling.

A back story will give your brand a personality and can let your brand be recognizable to the customers, that helps develop a good client base.

You should think about joining an web-based web business assembly. Conversing with others looking to do exactly the same thing as you can be helpful. Other home based business enterprise owners know what you deal with, and you could collaborate together and request for advice.

Whenever you get yourself a payment, use it from the bank. Instead of making a weekly or monthly bank deposit, make deposits daily or weekly. It may get lost when you don't deposit a check without delay. Use a teller to deposit your hard earned dollars through, as opposed to an ATM, to be certain the cash explores your account.

You wish to feel the same degree of enthusiasm while you did once your business first started. You wish to do well and you may need a boost to acquire more motivation. With any luck, this piece is helpful to you.
