hi guys im trying to build dynamic rss feed from our data base, then use megpie to parse them. im not sure where is the problem on my code, im getting this error while parsing the feed : Warning: MagpieRSS: Failed to parse RSS file. (xml declaration not at start of external entity at line 1, column 1) in /home/example/public_html/testserv/rssdemo/magpierss/rss_fetch.inc on line 238
Problem with: <snip> any help will be really appreciated. here is the code to get the data out of mysql and get the clea xml.
<?php
include("dbinfo.inc.php");
$dbconnect = mysql_pconnect(localhost,$username,$password);
mysql_select_db($database, $dbconnect);
$query = "SELECT id, title, itemcomment, picturelink FROM jos_seyret_items WHERE featured='1' order by id desc limit 15";
$result = mysql_query($query, $dbconnect);
while ($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$return[] = $line;
}
$now = date("D, d M Y H:i:s T");
$output = "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>
<rss version=\"2.0\">
<channel>
<title>What's hot</title>

";
foreach ($return as $line)
{
$output .= "<item><title>".htmlentities($line['title'])."</title>
<link>http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_seyret&Itemid=27&task=videodirectlink&id=".htmlentities($line['id'])."</link>

Just curious as to whether you managed to solve your problem? If so, was it an issue with MagpieRSS, or your RSS feed itself?

I coudnt get it to work with megpie for some reason, so i changed the pvp script to get the my feed clean and then validated it. works pretty good now.
