hi guys, im building a script which will be shared among multiple users, so im adding a news section, i want this news section to be updated from our home site, this news section will contain patch info ect,

 

so my question is which way is better, more likely to be supported by servers, and cleaner,

 

1) Rss feed, (can you read the info from a rss feed out like normal text?)

2) remote file inclusion

3) remote file get contents

4) remote database connection, (not to sure about this option as that would reveal our password and username to the end user)

5) any other options you could suggest?

 

cheers matt

sorry, i msut not have explainede this very well, the user does not modify this data we(the creators) do, this is simply notices to the admins of the script (it is a shop) to let them know when a upgrade is available, or any important news, so we want one point on our site where we can modify the data and it will change on everywhere that is using the script.

 

cheers,
