Steps to show the RSS Feed Data using SharePoint Designer

It is very simple to get data from RSS feeds using SP Designer.
I will show with a simple example.
Please follow the steps given below - (Explained with example)

1)Open the SP Designer, and open the site and the page where you want to show the RSS Feed data.
2)I am taking the RSS Feed Url of my blog (http://rajkamal29.blogspot.com/atom.xml).
3)In the right side of the SP Designer you will find the "Data Source Library" Toolbar,Go to "Server-side Scripts" Options and click "Connect to script or RSS Feed".

3)Now you will get an "Data Source Properties" window, thenn select "HTTP Get" method in the drop down and data command "Select", finally provide the RSS Feed Url of my blog as show above (http://rajkamal29.blogspot.com/atom.xml) in the "Url to a Server-side script" Section and click Ok.

4)Then select "Show Data" which is located when you click on the right arrow of the RSS feed connection as shown below.

5) Then you will go to the "Data Source Details" toolbar, where you will find all the Fields.
6) Select the "Fields" you want to display and click on the "Insert Selected Fields as.." button located on the top of the fields and click "Single Item View" tab.

7)You will find the data in the page( in Sharepoint Designer) as "Data form" webpart,then customize data form web part according your requirement as shown below.
