I have a few forums I host for various race tracks.. I would like to display there last 10 threads of their forum on the homepage of their site. Is this possible?

I found this link
HowTo Display Latest Active Threads on ANY normal HTML page - vBulletin Community Forum

But not sure what I am doing wrong..

Here is the code I have put on my external page.

<!-- show latest active threads -->
<table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<a href="search.php?do=getnew">Latest Active Threads In The County Line Forums</a>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody>
<tr>

<td width="100%">

<div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="external.php?forumids=109,191,135&type=js"></script>
<script language="" type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (x = 0; x < 10; x++)
{
document.writeln("<a href=\"showthread.php?t="+threads[x].threadid+"\">"+threads[x].title+"</a> (Posted By: "+threads[x].poster+")<br />");
}
//-->
</script></div>

</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<!-- show latest active threads -->
</table>

Forums I am trying to pull feeds from HERE

Page created HERE

I don't plan on using a single page, once I get it working I would like to put it in a table on the home page.

If you use Javascript to pull the threads you won't get rewritten urls since javascript is a client side scripting language. You should use a PHP program such as simple pie to do it.

Here is my php code the shows the 15 latest threads on my sidebar that can be seen here: Ford Mustang | Mustang Forums for Ford Mustang Enthusiasts

<div class="dsl-content">
<div class="dsl-content-in">
<ul>
<?php
require($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/php/simplepie.inc');

$feed = new SimplePie();
$feed->feed_url('http://www.mustangevolution.com/forum/external.php?type=RSS2&forumids=257,275,256,134,279,142,282,255,133,258,207,125,169,285,281,246,303,302,233,227,204,268');
$feed->cache_location($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/cache');
$feed->init();

$feed->handle_content_type();

    $max = $feed->get_item_quantity(15);
    for ($x = 0; $x < $max; $x++) {
	    $item = $feed->get_item($x);
$url = $item->get_permalink();
$title = $item->get_title();

echo "<li style=\"list-style: none; padding-bottom: 9px;\"><a style=\"border: 0px;\" href=\"$url\">$title</a></li>";
}
?>
</ul>
</div>
</div>

Thanks I'll check that out.. Like what you have done with your site..

Looks like this is for a php page.. All the pages I have created are html.. the site I want to show the recent threads on are not on the same server and have different urls.. I do not want to create a entire new page..

I want to display the posts from THIS forum on THIS site.

I know there has got to be a way to do this, Just can't find it right now..
