Dave Farquhar has a handy tutorial on putting together a news feed page, using PHP and XML. It really is rather straightforward. I had a little play and knocked something together without too many problems.

However it’s not much use a presentation tool, until I figure out the parsing of HTML codes. & for example. I need to render this as raw HTML code, not the onscreen version of it.

Perhaps when I’ve a bit more time, I’ll play a little more. It’s worth having a play though to show how simple getting an XML feed is. Also means I now understand why this place generates XML, and how it might be used.
