Re: RSS and SEO

Will RSS feeds from our site be read by Search Engines?
We are experimenting with RSS feeds. A web site pastes in javascript code to read in our RSS feed.
for example:
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.mysite.com/rssfeed/rss2js.php"></script>
This code will display a formatted RSS feed on a guests web site with no coding or PHP on their part.
The formatted RSS feed will have a headline for example: "Get Hardware Reviews Now!" with a link.
Will that page be spidered?
Thanks ladies and gents!

RSS is mainly used by blogs, newsservices and other who would like to syndicate their content, so it has been a bit under the radar since we are a SEO company. However Google does index xml, and since rss is xml it will get indexed as long as there is a plain link to it. Please remember that most spider does not trigger javascript.
