  128. </form>
  129. </body>
  130. </html>

I know this is somewhat all over the place but it is still essentially being tested. I need to be able to take the data entered in this form and insert it into an existing RSS feed as its own item. I have the code for the rss feed if anyone wants to see that but it is the same format as any other form. I know this is not the most difficult task, but it is for someone who was never taught this and has never had to do it before. Thanks.

you could just open the rss file with php, put the form data into the proper format and append it to the file.
