PHP Include ('include' method)

If you have PHP support on your server, you can use the following code to include a feed digest directly into your page's source code:

include ("http://app.feeddigest.com/digest3/BYJKALARUW.html");
?>

Pros: Fast. Works well with complex multi-language and character encoding situations.

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://app.feeddigest.com/digest3/BYJKALARUW.html');
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $file_contents;
?>

Http.Send()
Response.Write(Http.ResponseText)
%>

Character Encoding

If your digest contains unexpected or weird symbols, read this..

If your digest contains non-ASCII characters, it is essential the character encoding of your page matches that of your digests, or vice versa. An HTML page has no definitive character encoding unless you specify one, and to do so include the following code in your page's <head> .. </head> section:

This code should resolve any issues you may be having with extraneous, weird characters appearing in your digest which do not appear on an HTML preview.
