Can site data be dynamically linked?

[lvninaz]

I would like to create a website that has content from other sites. For example I would like to include economic data from the federal reserve website, stock market data, etc. on one site. I do not want to use hyperlinks to go to individual sites.

Is this possible?

Yes, if the sites you want to get the data from make it available for re-publishing through something called an RSS feed. You put some code on your site that automatically pulls in the data from the other sites. Check Google to learn about RSS in general, and check the sites you want to get content from to see if they make their data available in RSS format.

Disclaimer: I'm not an RSS expert, I just looked into this once for a client who wanted to get news feeds on their site. I set it up and got it working but the client didn't want to proceed, and that was about a year ago and I don't remember the details.
