Latest posts on HTML site – without PHP?

    One of my clients wants to post their latest blog post on their non-Wordpress website. I did some searching on the forum and found many cool solutions, but all of the solutions seem to require that the page be written in PHP.

    I told the client that their site would need to be written in PHP in order to show latest WordPress blog posts. And they responded with “Isn’t that what RSS is for?”


    Is it possible to put latest blog posts on a plain HTML page using RSS?

    (sorry if it’s a newbie question)

    PHP pages can contain pure HTML, so i can’t see why there would be any reason you’d need to specifically choose to use a HTML page on a PHP enabled server.

    Reading feeds in a HTML page would mean relying on a Javascript feed reader, which search engines will not read.

    Can’t make any suggestions beyond that, not something i’ve done myself.

    In any case, whichever route you take you’ll need a script for reading the feed, whether that’s JS or PHP, and which script you use is up to you..

    @idesign123 can always use iframe in html pages to render RSS feed from WP blog.
