Ticker that uses RSS feeds (XML)?

Does anyone know how to create a news ticker, or moving headline text that pulls it’s data from an existing RSS feed or XML file? Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I did the XML fetching part using xml_domit_rss_lite from
PHPClasses.org. The ticker part was done with Prototype.js + some
hand coding. You can see the finished result at http://

If I had to do it again, I wouldn’t use xml_domit_rss_lite, it’s just
way too many files and dependencies for my taste. Very abstract, very
long-beard. But it really really works, even on very funky RSS. A
little searching at HotScripts should turn up something simpler.
