I'm trying to incorparate 2 rss feeds with the rss parser from the wiki.

However I can't get the second feed retrieved? Can some tell me what is the best way to do it, or what i'm doing wrong

controller

Code:
//Load the shiny new rssparse

          $this->load->library('RSSParser', array('url' => 'http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/1.0/user/junkie_scum/recenttracks.rss', 'life' => 0));

        //Get six items from the feed

          $lastfm = $this->rssparser->getFeed(6);

        //Load the shiny new rssparse

          $this->load->library('RSSParser', array('url' => 'http://feeds.delicious.com/rss/theblackcat', 'life' => 0));

        //Get six items from the feed

          $delicious = $this->rssparser->getFeed(6);

view

Code:
<ul class="rss">

&lt;? foreach ($lastfm as $item) :

    echo "<li>";

    echo '<a href=" '.$item['link'].'">';

    echo $item['title'];

    echo "</a>";

    echo "</li>";

  endforeach;  ?&gt;

  </ul>

      <h2>Delicious</h2>

     <ul class="rss">

&lt;? foreach ($delicious as $item2) :

    echo "<li>";

    echo '<a href=" '.$item2['link'].'">';

    echo $item2['title'];

    echo "</a>";

    echo "</li>";

  endforeach;  ?&gt;

  </ul>

The loader is a singleton interface. Basically means that reloading a library doesn't create a new object, but returns an existing one. Two options:

Code:
// Create a new instance

$delicious = new RSSParser($params);

// Reuse the old one - be careful this will break lastfm - make sure you're done using that one or use method 1

$this->feed_uri = 'http://feeds.delicious.com/rss/theblackcat';

$delicious = $this->rssparser->getFeed(6);

Have you done object oriented programming before karloff?

Both of the examples I have given should be functional as is. I used $params for the parameter array for the sake of brevity.

Code:
$params = array('url' => 'http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/1.0/user/junkie_scum/recenttracks.rss', 'life' => 0);

$delicious = new RSSParser($params);

no i haven't, it is on the long list to learn tho Smile

I have tried that and it seems not too work.

I set up a test page and the feed is not responding even by itself. any idea why?
