    Default Need programing help - DDE feeds -> Excel -> Web?

    I have a real time DDE feed that I want to integrate, also real time, to my new website.

    The feed works perfect (tick by tick) in excel, but I need a way to get that data feed into html.

    Anyone have any idea on how to do this? My web site developer is at a loss.

    Easiest way is probably to write an XML file on the web server with the DDE contents (what is DDE btw, must be some Microsoft invention) and update the web page dynamically with the contents of said XML file with a bit of AJAX.

    The alternative would be to do something Microsoftish with the DDE feed and the Microsoft web server, but I don't know how as I never use Microsoft stuff on the server side.

    Tell him to have a look at how I set up http://www.den-uijl.nl/gold/gold.php . He should be able to take it from there. If not, get an other site developer.
