Place the attached testme.php file in your forums directory. Done!

(CodeRed - in your situation, I turned off "Use RSS image?" for the feed you wanted. I think it looks better that way. You may want to try that too)

thanks a ton for the info CR.... unfortunately its not quite working for me...

im guessing the reason may be that im still using VB 3.5.1... ugh.

Thanks a ton for your help regardless and I hope to get updated soon and give it another try...

EDIT: the testme.php page loads entirely with the correct header, footer, title etc its just that its not displaying the $myfeedsdetail information
