xml feed issue

[xsivforce]

There is a small issue with the xml news feed. The first article in the feed also contains the site url.

For instance, instead of "Whizlabs Launches MCP Exam Simulator" it shows "OSNNWhizlabs Launches MCP Exam Simulator" with a url of "http://www.osnn.nethttp//www.osnn.net/comments.php?shownews=10384" instead of "http//www.osnn.net/comments.php?shownews=10384"

I guess your code is not parsing that part quite right?
I think I need to tidy that part up a little, will do it when I get home.

 

[xsivforce]

Cool. Not sure why it is showing the way it is.

 

[Electronic Punk]

ok I have removed the <image bits, let me know if that sorts it.

 

[xsivforce]

Yes Sir, that did it. Thank you.

 

[Electronic Punk]

excellent, dunno what that bit of code did anyway, so deleting it was even more satisfying.

Don't try that at home kids!

Not sure as you and I use the same software for our xml feed. I am using an image in mine. Odd *shrugs* Well, it works fine now so it's all good. 😎

 

[Electronic Punk]

Well mine is fairly funked, and there are still a few glitches, I will get em sorted eventually. It doesn't like some characters and it can knock it all over... tho some pages can still parse it correctly.

Moved to fixed 🙂
