This scripts will create a list of the latest entries on your blog. It'll generate the list with your blog title and time of posting, followed by a direct link to your blog entry. It uses AJAX to read your blog's RSS feeds and then displays them.
Unlike the previous Post Archive Script, this script extract your blog details from your RSS feed instead of collecting information from your visiting page. Hence it only requires a short script making it very easy to install.
Maximum numberOfPost in the list is 10 for free blogs, and 20 for paid blogs
Uses AJAX technology and your blog RSS
Only one set of this script allowed in one blog. More than one set would cause the script to malfunction.
Example:
Installation:
Paste the following codes in your "Profile Section" or "Side Section" (under "Layout & Design")
<!-- Recent Entries Script Starts -->
<div id="rssreaderstatus" style="display:none"></div>
<div id="ajaxreader"></div>
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
var blogurl = ""; // complete blog url
var numberOfPost = 10;
var rssreaderTitle = "<b>Recent Post:</b><br>";
var rssreaderDot = "»";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://design.blogdrive.com/scripts/rssreader"></script>
<!-- Recent Entries Script Ends -->
Other features:
You can use this script to display recent entries from other BlogDrive blogs by inserting the full blog URL into the blogurl variable between the quotes ("). However, remember not to install more than one set of this script as it would not work.
Script is modified from AJAX magazine to be usable on BlogDrive.

Ratty May 12, 2009 10:02 AM PDT Woah! :D This script is amazing! Thank you very much! I just installed it ^^
kak crisis June 5, 2007 01:46 AM PDT hey.. this script really works.. just copy and paste it to your profile section or side section and voila!! Thanks!!
alexflores January 16, 2007 12:12 PM PST I've been looking for this. Though it only displays 10 most recent topics, nevertheless, I'm already satisfied. Half of my wish is granted. Thank you very much.
abbey September 23, 2006 04:29 AM PDT danda ng layout na 2. . .
Douzy Douzinas July 14, 2006 11:11 PM PDT Hi, I added the Recent Entries script to my blog, but it's almost an hour now and all that I see is "Requesting data..." Pls advice. Thanx.
eyin July 3, 2006 05:06 AM PDT argh, finally! i've been looking for this one! thanks!
jenny June 17, 2006 07:40 PM PDT yep, thought i'd find it eventually =)
Seige June 17, 2006 03:45 PM PDT well, it's as publish on the internet ;)
jenny June 17, 2006 12:01 AM PDT I meant the js code sourced here. But never mind, I'm good. Thanks for dropping by, btw! =)
Seige June 16, 2006 10:36 PM PDT You're right, It'd be faster to get it straight from their database. This goes the same for comments RSS too. However, I doubt BD wil introduce it anytime soon.
What do you mean by sending you the code? it's as publish on the design blog, as pe link... right?
jenny June 16, 2006 09:33 PM PDT Hello Seige! Great work on this script, it's working perfectly (albeit a little slow, but that's out of your control). Hopefully BD will put this feature in, and then it will be quicker surely. For the meantime, my thanks to you for making this possible!
P.S. Can you maybe send me the code? I promise I will not do any form of piracy or plagiarism or copyright infringement or whatever. The sole purpose would be to satisfy my own personal curiosity. No problem if you prefer to keep it private though. =)
Seige June 16, 2006 03:26 AM PDT By the way, what do you mean by archives? Blogdrive automatically stores archives for you.
Seige June 16, 2006 03:20 AM PDT James: in the mean time, you could check out the Google Sitemap Generator...
james June 16, 2006 02:57 AM PDT ok thanks in advance, seige! good luck
Seige June 15, 2006 12:13 PM PDT I'm working on that one! :p
james June 15, 2006 03:09 AM PDT do we have archives n categories not just list of new entries? help
J f Z April 14, 2006 07:37 PM PDT Great script, Seige! I appreciate your work on it, and hosting it, and the ability to modify some of the elements in it. I'm using it on Dark Skies (linked above).
I replaced » with • for the RSSreaderdot variable.
fifi February 10, 2006 02:05 AM PST This is great!
How do I modify it to become a pull-down menu instead of a list?
Thanks.
Seige December 24, 2005 03:16 PM PST The script is working well on your blog. It may take a longer time if you are on dial up connection to show the list.
Epong December 22, 2005 02:42 AM PST I've tried it on my blog, but it fails to show.. it kept saying "Requesting Data.."
I put the script at my 'Side Section'.. haven't changed anything in the script except adding my blog's url..
