RSS help Please

Hellow fellow coders,

I am stuck trying to display rss feeds from my site forum ( vbulletin powerd )

Bellow is s snippet of the code for where i want it to be displayed.

The feeds are being displayed at

http://www.united-gamerz.com/forum/external.php

What i want is the recent 5 threads to be displayed in the <li> tags e.g.

<li>Recent post 1 title linked to post</li>

PHP:

<div id="box7">

						<h2 class="text2 title2">Recent</h2>						<div class="content">

<div class="box">
<h3 class="text2">Recent threads on the forum</h3>
<ul class="ul2">
<li>recent thread - waiting for rss feed</li>

<li>recent thread - waiting for rss feed</li>

<li>recent thread - waiting for rss feed</li>

<li>recent thread - waiting for rss feed</li>

<li>recent thread - waiting for rss feed</li>

</ul>

</div>

PHP:

Can anyone help and tell me what to do?

Thanks

Paul

 

It would involve some extra code...I can do it for you. Please message me on a instant messenger.

 

You need to use any rss parser, I recommend you to try with simplepie.org

 

Here you go! You didn't need no big libraries, just some basic PREG.

<?PHP
$Data=file_get_contents('http://www.united-gamerz.com/forum/external.php');

preg_match_all('/\<title\>(.*?)\<\/title\>/',$Data,$Titles);
preg_match_all('/\<link\>(.*?)\<\/link\>/',$Data,$Links);
$Titles=array_slice($Titles[1],2); //First 2 are the forum's stuff
$Links=array_slice($Links[1],2);// Skip two

$URLs=array();
for($i=0;$i<count($Titles);$i++)
	$URLs[$Titles[$i]]=$Links[$i]; // Make a new array!
?>

<div id="box7">

<h2 class="text2 title2">Recent</h2>
<div class="content">
    <div class="box">
    <h3 class="text2">Recent threads on the forum</h3>
        <ul class="ul2">
			<?PHP
				foreach($URLs as $Title => $Link)
	 	           echo '<li><a href="'.$Link.'">'.$Title.'</a></li>';
			?>
		</ul>
    
    </div>
