I haven't tried any code i just cant figure out a way to parse a link from rss and then open that webpage and then 30 seconds change the page to the next one in the rss — Alcatraz, May 20 '12 at 00:44
You need to load the RSS through AJAX and that needs to be done within a setInterval loop that runs your code every 30 seconds. The webpage DOM update should be done within that loop too. Combined with Zachary's suggestion on how to parse RSS with jQuery and my answer, you should have a good start on the code. — Cameron Tinker, May 20 '12 at 05:44

You could try putting your code in a setInterval loop like this:

var refresh = setInterval(30000, function() {
   var obj = $.ajax({
    url: 'url', 
    data: { data }, 
    type: 'GET',
        }).done(function(msg) {
       console.log('ajax asynchronous request finished');
      });
   var rss = obj.responseText;
});
