The link to the feed-tool has to be placed either inside a frmae (or i-frame) or inside the users own source-code.

2. EARD-InfoSys+ RSS-FEED
InfoSys+ offers two RSS-feeds: one with the latest entries on news, sorted backwards, and the other with the next 15 upcoming events sorted forward. The path to this feeds is:
- News: http://www.infosysplus.org/feed/rss/news.rss
- Events: http://www.infosysplus.org/feed/rss/event.rss
The RSS-feeds are built up according to rss version 2.0 and encoded in utf-8.
You can use these rss-feeds inside your HTML-code by getting a javascript code-snippet. This javascript uses the transformation-method of a third party provider, that reads the rss-feeds and transforms them via javascript into HTML.
One example for such an third party provider is http://rssxpress.ukoln.ac.uk/lite/include/
Follow the instructions and paste the javascript-snippet into your own HTML-code.
