  I would like to link the latest currency data and commodity prices to my sidebar. I run a blog for a financial office and it would really add alot of value.

  Can anybody help me?

  Might help us help you if you told us what specifically you were trying to add in in way of html code. :)

  :) Thank you for responding, I’m a rookie actually – wouldn’t really know what the html will look like.

  Best I can do is give an example, of a page that has such a feed.

  my blog is psgw.wordpress.com I’ve tried to do it with rss but it does not display in a neat enough way.

  Well you would have to find the code to add in there. We can’t provide it for you.

  Chances are though the ones that you may find are going to bae javascripted based. Usually stuff like that which are providing updated information are and that’s going to be stripped out due to security concerns.
