Hi, first of all i am not sure if this is the correct place to post this question.

I am trying to get the information from a certain div on a website and dynamically display it on mine. Also when the content of the div is updated it will update on mine. Sort of like a RSS feed for a div. The website does not offer a RSS feed though.

How would i go about doing this. Thanks.

hey maybe if we are lucky in a few years when like HTML 7 comes out there will be a tag.
