filtering embedded RSS or ATOM feed by tags

how to embed only 'news' on one page, 'events' on other?

I've got a client in the therapy industry who wants the ability to update her website dynamically. I've implemented her google calendar so she can post scheduled events.

What she wants is a news page where she can post updates, long text descriptions of events, articles about healing, etc.

She's not technically savvy, so I wanted an easy interface for her. I'm not sure I'm doing this the best way, but I created her a blog on blogger.com, and I want to embed the feeds on different pages based on the tags/terms she selects for each post.

I've googled and I've searched these forums, but I can't seem to find how to do it, and I don't what search terms to use. If someone could point me in the right direction as to what tools to use, what articles to read, I would appreciate it greatly.

If you choose to be more explicit, all the better.

oh, and I'm running the atom.xml file through feedburner to get rss 2.0, as was suggested elsewhere for easy embedding.

The blogger site will probably be quite easy for your client to work with.

I want to embed the feeds on different pages based on the tags/terms she selects for each post.

Could you explain this a bit. I'm not really sure what you're trying to do. What feeds are you trying to embed? How are you trying to do this?

I actually figured it out after walking away from the computer for a bit, and coming back to it later. Blogger allows you to pull feeds from only one label using a link formed as:

[BLOGNAME.blogspot.com...]

For clarification, what I'm doing is creating a blog as a content update interface for my client, and then pulling the feeds to different pages on her website proper based on the labels she applies to each post.

The above solution works wonderfully, btw. :-)
