Copy this code and paste it in your HTML
  1. <?php
  2. error_reporting(E_ALL); // shows all errors, remove this on live sites
  3.  
  4. $feedURL = 'http://mydomain.com/rss/example.xml';
  5. $getFILE = get_content($feedURL) or die("feed not loading");
  6. $xml = simplexml_load_string($getFILE, NULL, LIBXML_NOCDATA); // Set CDATA as text nodes
  7. $xml->registerXPathNamespace('atom', 'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'); // define namespace atom
  8.  
  9. class oEntry
  10. {
  11. public $url;
  12. public $author;
  13. public $date;
  14. public $text;
  15.  
  16. function oEntry($url, $author, $date, $text) {
  17. $this->url = $url;
  18. $this->author = $author;
  19. $this->date = $date;
  20. $this->text = $text;
  21. }
  22. }
  23.  
  24. foreach($xml->xpath('atom:entry') as $entry) {
  25. // array of objects
  26. $e[] = new oEntry($xml->link['href'], $entry->author->name, $entry->published, $entry->content);
  27. } // end foreach
