this is a good idea... nice one. Hope this canbe made to work on the Gold version when its released...

turning magicquotes on took care of this problem. I got it to work with one feed, but most of what I can use are not ver.91. A few feeds seem to include image tags which makes them not function. Here is one of those:

Yea that'd fix it, because on my server it's not having a problem with apostrophe's in the titles. That example you posted isn't a very good news feed. Under the description it has the date and such, where my script is made to have the description as a short version of the article. I'd steer away from using that one, not to mention it doesn't have a pubdate field, so that'd cause some errors with the program.

I designed it with CNET News in mind.

an excellent looking hack m8 - would it be possible to expand it so that you can have different feeds posting in different forums?

Hm, be a little more complicated and I'd have to convert it over to SQL based instead of file-based configuration. However, it could be done... I will look at that for the next version I put out (which will probably be here in the next couple weeks). Thanks for the input.

Looks great. I am anxious for it to ready for RC3

Got it working just fine, great hack.

1 question though, as posts have been made by the bot they are not upping the forum post count. I setup a new forum just for the rss feed but people will never be able to see when new news arrives unless they physically go into the forum. Is there a fix?

Well, I could, but it'd slow down your load time for the main page. You'd have to be willing to sacrifice that.

by the way... I got that feed working. I had to delete the two RSS entries in the thread table, then reinstall them.

Seems to be working well

thanks

Please explain...how would this slow down the load time?
