RSS Feeds

[Hardliner]

I'm trying to setup my personal web site with some RSS Feeds and I am needing some assistance on getting this setup. I grabbed the Magpie Parser but I'm not sure what to do from there. I understand basic HTML, use FrontPage & Dreamweaver for my HTML work, and I guess that's about it. Any help is appreciated.

You need to give more info about the code and what you want to achieve.

I do not know what you mean about more info about the code. I know that the plug in is used in XML and something about PHP but that's all I understand about it.

I am hoping to achieve having certain RSS feeds to display on my web site.

it gives you an example in the INSTALL file.

Upload the files and then add the code into your PHP script.
Here is an example to show the CTH RSS feed

PHP Code:

<?
require_once('magpierss/rss_fetch.inc');
 $url = 'http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/external.php?type=rss';
 $rss = fetch_rss( $url );
 
 echo "Channel Title: " . $rss->channel['title'] . "<p>";
 echo "<ul>";
 foreach ($rss->items as $item) {
  $href = $item['link'];
  $title = $item['title'];
  echo "<li><a href=$href>$title</a></li>";
 }
 echo "</ul>";
 ?>
