Stock Market Index

[Peter_McC]

Hi, hope I'm posting in the correct place!

I'm working on a business related site and want to include a stock market prices index similar to the one on [businessweek.com...] (titled MARKET INFO).

Ideally it would be JavaScript and or PHP based. I've checked sourceforge but not sure what I'm looking at to be honest (not the most technical person). I just want something simple that will basically plug-in to the site and isn't completely covered with ads.

Thanks.

AHN - All Headline News

come to mind.

You could contract with the exchange directly for their datafeed

Cheers AHN is one I wasn't aware off and might be of use in the future, but I'm really looking for a visual chart that will update per page visit or throughout the day at intervals.

This is getting close to what I'm looking for and might be interest to other content researchers:

[web-2.0.financialcontent.com...]

I hadn't intended to dedicate so much space to this feature though, the search continues...

Hi, I thought I'd keep interested parties updated on my search for a good stock market widget. I've found another useful sample here:

[yourminis.com...]

It suits my purposes better than the last one because it requires less room and looks pretty good (colours etc can also be customized).

I am pretty sure you can't power a commercial application or use Yahoo! Finance on any site that is "not personal" in nature.

Thanks eventus, you saved me wasting more time.
