Is there a free tool or way to do this?
 

What I want to do is take a sponsor's rss feed link, and make the feed results appear on a php page. I don't want to use javascript to do it.

I found this site, and tested the free version. It does what I want. Their upgrade lets you remove their link, and other things that I did not really study at 2:00 a.m

http://www.rssinclude.com/

Of course I'd rather do it for free, if there is a way to do so.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I've downloaded that and will check it out. Thanks hon! :)

Just key in the rss feed url, and the max items (toward the bottom of the file)..

I use it with numerous feeds.. most work fine for me..

<?php
set_time_limit(0);

$file = "RSS FEED URL";

$rss_channel = array();
$currently_writing = "";
$main = "";
$item_counter = 0;
function startElement($parser, $name, $attrs) {
global $rss_channel, $currently_writing, $main;
switch($name) {
case "RSS":
case "RDF:RDF":
case "ITEMS":
$currently_writing = "";
break;
case "CHANNEL":
$main = "CHANNEL";
break;
case "IMAGE":
$main = "IMAGE";
$rss_channel["IMAGE"] = array();
break;
case "ITEM":
$main = "ITEMS";
break;
default:
$currently_writing = $name;
break;
}
}

function endElement($parser, $name) {
global $rss_channel, $currently_writing, $item_counter;
$currently_writing = "";
if ($name == "ITEM") {
$item_counter++;
}
}

function characterData($parser, $data) {
global $rss_channel, $currently_writing, $main, $item_counter;
if ($currently_writing != "") {
switch($main) {
case "CHANNEL":
if (isset($rss_channel[$currently_writing])) {
$rss_channel[$currently_writing] .= $data;
} else {
$rss_channel[$currently_writing] = $data;
}
break;
case "IMAGE":
if (isset($rss_channel[$main][$currently_writing])) {
$rss_channel[$main][$currently_writing] .= $data;
} else {
$rss_channel[$main][$currently_writing] = $data;
}
break;
case "ITEMS":
if (isset($rss_channel[$main][$item_counter][$currently_writing])) {
$rss_channel[$main][$item_counter][$currently_writing] .= $data;
} else {
$rss_channel[$main][$item_counter][$currently_writing] = $data;
}
break;
}
}
}
$xml_parser = xml_parser_create();
xml_set_element_handler($xml_parser, "startElement", "endElement");
xml_set_character_data_handler($xml_parser, "characterData");
if (!($fp = fopen($file, "r"))) {
die("could not open XML input");
}

while ($data = fread($fp, 4096)) {
if (!xml_parse($xml_parser, $data, feof($fp))) {
die(sprintf("XML error: %s at line %d",
xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xml_parser)),
xml_get_current_line_number($xml_parser)));
}
}
xml_parser_free($xml_parser);
// output HTML
if (isset($rss_channel["ITEMS"])) {
if (count($rss_channel["ITEMS"]) > 0) {

for($i = 0;$i < ENTER MAX ITEMS HERE;$i++) {

if (isset($rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["LINK"])) {
print ("\n<div class=\"itemtitle\"><table><tr><td><font size=\"2\"><B><a href=\"" . $rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["LINK"] . "\">" . $rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["TITLE"] . "</a></B></div>");
} else {
print ("\n<div class=\"itemtitle\">" . $rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["TITLE"] . "</div>");
}
print ("<div class=\"itemdescription\">" . $rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["DESCRIPTION"] . "</font></td></tr></table></DIV>"); }
} else {
print ("<b>There are no articles in this feed.</b>");
}
}
?>

need something like this myself too...

Works for me.
