Hey,

I am trying to get a script ready to release for my clients, that is basically the blog that was made on IWDN but with a nice layout and contact details for my company in case clients have trouble.

Basically i am wondering how i can have a div, that no matter where the file is hosted would load the news from my site.

I think an XML file fits the par where i could just edit it and upload to my server, but how do i get the XML to load into a specific DIV in the layout on my clients server?

This sounds like a job for IFRAMES, XMLHTTPRequest, or a feed. I don't think this is really an XML question, it sounds like you want to remotely include a snippet of HTML. The other thing you can try, is to set up a feed. When you post to your server, the remote server is notified and pulls the new data.
