You would need to post your code for anyone in a forum to have a chance of telling you why it is not working.

You might also want to take a look at some existing RSS display scripts - http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex18/index.html

my page is shtml so a simple ssi should work. here it is anyway:

<!--#include virtual="/magicrssforblogs.php?descLen=70&max=5&url=http://graphics8.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/Technology.xml" -->

The encoding of the feed differs from the encoding of your page.

Could you be a little more specific? What I need to change and where?

the encoding of the rss feed is UTF-8:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 

You have to check the charset encoding of your page (probably ISO-8859-1). You have to change this to UTF-8, or convert the rss feed to ISO-8859-1
