actually rss_bot_1.23a is for people with a PHP version prior to 4.3.0 and you have PHP above 4.3.0 ... you should use rss_bot_1.23 .... but either way, it is working. they should work, it's just that the in rss_bot_1.23 i use a function that was not introduced till 4.3.0 and so i had to insert a workaround.

rss_bot_1.23 - normal
rss_bot_1.23a - workaround for PHP prior to 4.3.0

the workaround obviously works for either PHP above and below 4.3.0.

I don't get it... what do I put for "Source"?

you find a rss news feed. in my first post announcing this hack i listed a few different rss news feeds.

i'm using the yahoo sports news feed for my site. but you can use whatever feed(s) you would like to on your site. you can have more than one.

I mean like do I put in "Yahoo!" or I put in url?

oh, you would put in the URL to the RSS feed.

Would that be http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/music or http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss

the music one. it has the data that you want. you can tell when you open the link to the rss feed up in the browser.

Alright and it runs every hour, is there anyway I can manualy run it so I can see if it works or not?

EDIT: Sorry for all these question, I'm kind of retarded.

yes, once you have set up your cron job in the scheduled tasks manager. you can open up the scheduled tasks manager and tell the cron job to run now. there is a button to the far right on every line for every cron job.

thanks a lot
