Pushing Content To A Remote Site

I’m not sure if this is the correct forum to post this question. But, I am wondering if there is a way to show weblog content on a site where pMachine Pro is not installed? Meaning, I use pMachine at Commpiled.com and want to show weblog entries on sites belonging to some of my contributors.

I thought maybe putting up a page on their sites with the <?php include(“pm_inc.php”); ?> tag along with the pm_inc.php file would do it if I made the path to the main script directory absolute instead of relative (i.e. $script_directory_path = “http://www.commpiled.com/”) instead of the normal $script_directory_path = “../”);) Didn’t work.

Would something like this be possible?

The only way you could reasonably do this is for them to use your RSS feed to display that content on your site.  If they’re using PHP they could use the Magpie Parser.  Otherwise, I think there are also some javascript solutions to display feed contents.

I was thinking about RSS, but figured I would have more control over the display of the content if i could publish the actaul weblog.

Anyway, that answers my question, so RSS it is.

Thanks for quick and helpful response—as always.
