Pulling XML content and displaying it on my site.

    Hello.

    I am new to your forum. I felt you all may be able to give me some direction on a project I am working on.

    I am creating a website for a WOW guild and they need a roster of members preferably synchronized with the WOW servers. Now, I have found an official site that has said information, and when I view the source of said information it is all in XML.

    Now, I am using the drupal content management system on PHP 5 all hosted at hostmonser.com.

    I have been looking for examples that I can modify for my needs without luck. I am unable to install stuff on my host so that complicates matters as well.

    The exact guild list is here: http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Boulderfist&n=Forsaken+Deity&p=1
    Character info:
    http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Boulderfist&n=Daingea

    My current test site is at: http://test.forsakendeity.net

    You will need to create a script that every x hours downloads the official site and parses the xml then updates the database.
