Good script. Works for a simple application
How can i take the data output and display it in my index.html page?
<?php
$NUMITEMS = 2;
$count = 0;
//Print all the entries
foreach($entries as $entry){
?>
<li><a href="<?= $entry->link ?>"><?= $entry->title ?></a> (<?= parse_url($entry->link)['host'] ?>)
<p><?= strftime('%m/%d/%Y %I:%M %p', strtotime($entry->pubDate)) ?></p>
<p><?= $entry->description ?></p></li>
<?php
}
if(++$count >= $NUMITEMS) break;
?>
<?php
$NUMITEMS = 2;
$count = 0;
//Print all the entries
foreach($entries as $entry){
?>
<li><a href="<?= $entry->link ?>"><?= $entry->title ?></a> (<?= parse_url($entry->link)['host'] ?>)
<p><?= strftime('%m/%d/%Y %I:%M %p', strtotime($entry->pubDate)) ?></p>
<p><?= $entry->description ?></p></li>
<?php
if(++$count >= $NUMITEMS) break;
}
?>
} <-- it must be befor the close php tag ?> else it would not count and break the foreach rule.
Can some help me with add a image with this code from the RSS Feed!
ahhhhh....... the best clean and simple rss reader
Nice. How i can get full text from an short rss link ?
Nice! Please how can I add feed media:thumbnail
I would recommend trying to var_dump($entry); in the last foreach loop as a means of debugging what is available on the $entry object
would you please write it again with load() function instead of simplexml_load_file()
simplexml_load_file() always make error
thanks
