Reading RSS from PHP pages

[Jakotsu]

Hi, I have a website totally PHP4 and JS capable, and have to read an RSS feed to show certain items from it on my pages. Is there some pre-made PHP script to do so and implement it on my site?

Thanks in advance.

MagpieRSS is an open source RSS parser that has been mentioned here a number of times. It works in PHP.

Thanks! I got that working very easily, it's really great. Thanks again. :)

Oops. It works until I try to read an item named <content:encoded> which has some HTML code inside it. I got an undefined index error when reading it with the standard method:

$MyContent = $item['content:encoded'];

this returns an error as "Notice: Undefined index: content:encoded ..."

The item from the RSS is shown this way on IE6:

<content:encoded>
- <![CDATA[ <table><tr valign="top">some more HTML code here blah blah</tr></table>
]]>
</content:encoded>

Is there some way to read this item with the MagpieRSS? This item is handled differently for some reason, any help on this will be really appreciated.
