ldoozer Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Hi all, I have an rss feed available to me that i would like to use, by presenting the website user with a form to search through the content of the feed and return the records within the feed that match that search. Is this possible and how might i go about it? Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Take a look at the simplexml extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldoozer Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Thanks for the reply, I think to you this you need php v5. Unfortunately we are using PHP Version 4.3.10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 php4 has reached the end of its life and is no longer supported by the php devs, I would suggest upgrading before you get left behind. php6 is not to far off the horizon. There is still an older xml extension available here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aschk Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 you can use the old DomDocument, and xml_parser object and method, but as thorpe suggests, upgrade before you're left for dead. Also, you can use xpath to construct queries in the information. Probably requires PHP5 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
