You need to edit the includes/xmlparser.php file and replace the render_news function with the code below:

New function (use this):

PHP Code:


		
			
function render_news($feed_url, $showdetail, $headlinestyle, $detailstyle) {

    global $show_detail, $headline_style, $detail_style, $max, $count, $insideitem, $insideimage, $code2;

    $insideitem=false;

    $insideimage=false;

    $count = 0;

    $show_detail = $showdetail;

    $headline_style = $headlinestyle;

    $detail_style = $detailstyle;



    $xml_parser = xml_parser_create();

    xml_set_element_handler($xml_parser, "startElement", "endElement");

    xml_set_character_data_handler($xml_parser, "characterData");

    

    $ch = curl_init();

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $feed_url);

    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

    $store = curl_exec ($ch);

    $xml = curl_exec ($ch);

    curl_close ($ch); 

    

    if (!xml_parse($xml_parser, $xml, True))

     {

     die(sprintf("XML error: %s at line %d",

      xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xml_parser)),

      xml_get_current_line_number($xml_parser)));

     }

 

    // Free up memory used by the XML parser

    xml_parser_free($xml_parser);

}

Old function (for comparison):

PHP Code:


		
			
function render_news($feed_url, $showdetail, $headlinestyle, $detailstyle) {

    global $show_detail, $headline_style, $detail_style, $max, $count, $insideitem, $insideimage, $code2;

    $insideitem=false;

    $insideimage=false;

    $count = 0;

    $show_detail = $showdetail;

    $headline_style = $headlinestyle;

    $detail_style = $detailstyle;



    $xml_parser = xml_parser_create();

    xml_set_element_handler($xml_parser, "startElement", "endElement");

    xml_set_character_data_handler($xml_parser, "characterData");

    $fp = @fopen($feed_url,"r");

//           or die("Error reading RSS data.");

    if ($fp) {

        while ($data = fread($fp, 4096))

           xml_parse($xml_parser, $data, feof($fp))

               or die(sprintf("XML error: %s at line %d",  

                   xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xml_parser)),  

                   xml_get_current_line_number($xml_parser)));

        fclose($fp);

        } else {

        $code2 .= "<span class=\"". $detail_style ."\">Syndicated content not available</span>";

        }

        

    

    // Free up memory used by the XML parser

    xml_parser_free($xml_parser);

}

That works wonderfully! Many, many, many thanks Hex!!! :cool:
