I want to acess RSS from different sites.
I have the following code for viewing RSS from different Sites.
Error is: Only Last Link i-e cnn_law.rss is retriewing others are not!
if i don't take $file as an array and only take one URL then its working fine but in case of array its not working and giving the above error.

[code]
<?php

set_time_limit(0);

$file[0] = "http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss";
$file[1] = "http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_health.rss";
$file[2] = "http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_law.rss";

$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 {

                }
                break;

                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");

    }
}

// output HTML
print ("<div class=\"channelname\">" . $rss_channel["TITLE"] . "</div>");

        for($i = 0;$i < count($rss_channel["ITEMS"]);$i++) {
            if (isset($rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["LINK"])) {
            print ("\n<div class=\"itemtitle\"><a href=\"" . $rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["LINK"] . "\">" . $rss_channel["ITEMS"][$i]["TITLE"] . "</a></div>");
