The Internet is full of HOWTOs which explain HOW-TO-MAKE-A-RSS-FEED...

However sometimes back I asked HERE IN THIS LIST the same IDIOTQUESTION!

You could have searched THIS LIST... :-P

OK, since I now know, how to make RSS Feeds here some advice:

1) you should know, how many days or hoe many items should be stored
in the RSS feed

2) Create for each article in the BLOG in a directory a file like

----8<--------------------------------------------------------------
<item>
<title>PHP Website</title>
<link>http://www.php.net/</link>
<description>Great programmers Website, where you an find nice peoples on the mailinglist, which explain how RSS is working.</description>
<guid isPermaLink="true">http://blog.pnp.net/items/1258834764.html</guid>
<pubDate>Sat, 21 Nov 2009 21:20:12 +0100</pubDate>
</item>
----8<--------------------------------------------------------------

and save them using the UNIX serialtime like 1258834764.rss
The included "isPermaLink" should point to the BLOG article

3) Now you have to create the index.rss.tmp with the HEADER which looks
like

----8<--------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<rss version="2.0" xmlns:blogChannel="http://backend.userland.com/blogChannelModule">

<channel>

<title>PHP Superhere PHP RSS Feed</title>
<link>http://www.php.net/</link>
<description>PHP RSS Feed Overview</description>
<language>en</language>

<link>www.php.net</link>
<width>120</width>
<height>160</height>
<description>PHP Logo</description>

----8<--------------------------------------------------------------


Now pipe how much (and in order ) the messages build under 2) at the
end and of this file...

4) close the RSS feed index.rss.tmp with

----8<--------------------------------------------------------------
</channel>

</rss>
----8<--------------------------------------------------------------

5) now move

mv index.rss.tmp <doc_root>/index.rss

thats all

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening

I've seen sites which detail all the posts to this list. Do you know of
one which has *search* capabilities?
