15 Super RSS Reader is jQuery based RSS reader widget, which displays the RSS feeds in the widget in an attractive way. It uses the jQuery easy ticker plugin to add a news ticker like effect to the RSS feeds. Multiple RSS feeds can be added for a single widget and they get seperated in tabs.

52 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
53
54 = How can I customize the RSS widget externally ? =
55
56 You can use the `super-rss-reader-widget` class in your stylesheet to control the widget styling. Other classes are,
57
58 1. `srr-tab-wrap` - the tab's class.
59 1. `srr-wrap` - the wrapper of the widget.
60 1. `srr-item.odd` - to control the odd feed items.
61 1. `srr-item.even` - to control the even feed items.
62
63 = Will the additional ticker effect slows the site ? =
64
65 No. the additional effect needs only 3.4 Kb of additional file. I think thats not too heavy to slow down the site.
66
67 = How to create a tabbed mode ? =
68
69 Just enter the RSS feed URLs seperated by comma in the widget, the plugin automatically renders the tab.
