Hello,

I used this

function returnObject($text) {
     $text = html_entity_decode($text, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
     $pattern = "/\<object[^>]+\>(.+?)\<\/object\>/i";
     preg_match($pattern, $text, $matches);
     $object = $matches[0];
     return $object;
}

But then I found that simplepie removes these objects tags from the code so I'm
wondering... is there any other way to get the <object - </object> code from the
content?

Thanks.

making a wordpress plugin and, i get this error...

"
A feed could not be found at
:http://news.google.com.au/news?pz=1&cf=all&ned=au&hl=en&output=rss
"

im processing multiple feeds in a loop, 2 of them are working (my blog), and all
feeds from news.google.com.au seem to be erroring out...

i made a small script with fsockopen, and the feed seems to be coming through,
and is valid!

i even upgraded simplepie "core" to the latest version, and it does not seem to
be working still....

am i missing something.

Thanx in advance.
M.

Something weird is happening causing some of the links inside the rss feed when
it gets parsed. The links get changed.

http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStoreServices.woa/ws/RSS/toppaidapplicat\
ions/sf=143441/limit=10/xml?partnerId=30&LS_PARAM=http%3A%2F%2Fclick.linksynergy\

0%26tmpid%3D1826%26RD_PARM1%3D

Paste it into http://simplepie.org/demo/ for what i mean.

You can use curl to get the raw xml to compare.

Do i need to tell simplepie to escape certain characters before i parse the
feed?

Anyone have an idea whats going wrong?

Thanks in advanced.

I'm not able to merge this feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/Geekissimo
http://feeds.feedburner.com/MambroRss
i receive a error:
Warning: Cannot merge zero SimplePie objects
How to do?

Great suggestion.  Thanks

I installed/have:
Simplepie version 1.2
Apache Server
PHP version 5

I am trying to get these modules to work:
rssmerger.php
I get the error message without any details:
Feed contains code errors

I made sure the simplepie.inc file location was ../simplepie.inc - one directory
level up from the rssmerger.php file.

I don't know what the problem is.  Please help!
Thanks!

Hey there, I'm building an app that will aggregate many feeds into one page and
I want the content to be as fresh as possible.

Are there any written/unwritten rules about how often you can check in with an
RSS publisher?  Will publishers block you if you're constantly pinging their
servers for updates?

I would like to check in with publishers from around every 1 to 5 minutes.

Thanks

Hello fpeoplecome ,

Thanks for the response BUT, i dont know what you mean by "content" part.  (and
ofcourse, im looking at newsblock.inc.php)  unless theres another place to look.

Couldnt we just make another function by coping "listing" or "wide" -- or
somehow combine the two so that it "automagically" detects the image in the feed
and give you an option to show image with a render option like: 'image-show=>
true,' -- or something like that

anyway.. any other thoughts?

Hello All,

I've been trying all day for images to appear in the "LISTING"

I've looked at the newsblock.inc.php file and cant figure it out..

any suggestions?

I read the tutorial on the single and multi feed ajax, but the problem with the
multi version is you need a separate box for each feed. How do you merge feeds
from say digg.com, google.com, cnn.com ect into one ajax feed box where each
feed item is in chronological order?

modify the update_feed.js into an array I suppose?

// Set feed urls
var feeds = createArray(
"http://finance.yahoo.com/rss/economy",
"http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheBigPicture");

The solution is: You MUST have either mbstring or iconv installed. PHP 5.0 and
newer has iconv built-in.

This will significantly impair your ability to read non-English feeds, as well
as even some English ones. Check the Supported Character Encodings chart to see
what's supported on your webhost.

I haven't received a reply to my previous post.

I did a search and there are several posts by others on different web sites of
this error but no response solutions.

I ran the sp_compatibility_test.php web page again.

The results indicated my server has

PHP 4.4.0

1.PHP: You are running a supported version of PHP. No problems here.

also

6. mbstring and iconv: You do not have either of the extensions installed. This
will significantly impair your ability to read non-English feeds, as well as
even some English ones. Check the Supported Character Encodings chart to see
what's supported on your webhost.

Would number 6. indicate the cause of the 'The data could not be converted to
UTF-8' error.

I have tried a number of different urls in the line of code

$feed = new SimplePie('http://simplepie.org/blog/feed/');

and I always get a 'The data could not be converted to UTF-8' error.

I am using SimplePie to cache feeds and make them available as a web service to

Could the same PHPSESSION ID lock be happening for that java client? Is there

I dont know much about Java. But I think if you initiate your request
objects (in C# its called HTTPWebRequest) in each thread itselft, It
may be resolved. May be you are initiating your webclient before you
start threading. Then you pass the webclient to the threads. So every
thread is sharing same webclient. So the same PHPSESSION ID is shared
too. When you initiate the webclient in each thread separately each
one will have different PHPSESSION.
Make any sense?

Upon installation of SimplePie version 1.2, I am getting a data could not be
converted to UTF-8 error.

I uploaded the sp_compatibility_test.php file to my web server.

It passes the compatibility test.

I have done a search on the SimplePie web site and Google, but having found a
cause.

Is it possible I need PHP 5 on my server for SimplePie version 1.2?

I have the line of code $feed->handle_content_type(); in the php

The following is some of the code

// This makes sure that the content is sent to the browser as text/html and the
UTF-8 character set (since we didn't change it).
$feed->handle_content_type();

// Let's begin our XHTML webpage code.  The DOCTYPE is supposed to be the very
first thing, so we'll keep it on the same line as the closing-PHP tag.
?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
         "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

<head>
	 <title>Sample SimplePie Page</title>
	 <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

I think its all about PHP, Not SimplePie.

I have this RSS parsing code and it paginates , but only uses next and previous
links instead of how google does it. I want it to read like this: first 1 2
3.... last

$length = (isset($_GET['length']) && !empty($_GET['length'])) ? $_GET['length']
: 5; // How many per page?
$max = $feed->get_item_quantity(); // Where do we end?

How would you convert this simple pie pagination code into one that resembles
google? Something like: Prev 1 2 3 .... Last

<?php
require_once('php/simplepie.inc');

// Set your own configuration options as you see fit.
$feed = new SimplePie();
$feed->set_feed_url(array(

	 'http://feeds2.feedburner.com/ChartsAndCoffee',
        
'http://feeds.feedburner.com/typepad/tradeblogs/the_slope_of_hope_with_ti',
));
$success = $feed->init();



// Make sure the page is being served with the right headers.
$feed->handle_content_type();

// Set our paging values
$start = (isset($_GET['start']) && !empty($_GET['start'])) ? $_GET['start'] : 0;
// Where do we start?
$length = (isset($_GET['length']) && !empty($_GET['length'])) ? $_GET['length']
: 5; // How many per page?
$max = $feed->get_item_quantity(); // Where do we end?

Hi,

I am trying to use SimplePie with CodeIgniter.  I am developing on a local xampp
installation.  I can run the demo application OK except for some warning
messages to do with idn/idna_convert.class.php.

I have copied and renamed the SimplePie.inc to Simplepie.php in the library
folder.  I have created a controller and added this line to the function index:

$this->load->library('Simplepie');

When I load Apache crashes and I have the following in my log file:

Parent: child process exited with status 3221225477 -- Restarting.

I am new to using PHP, CodeIgniter and SimplePie so I am hoping it's just
something simple I am missing.

Any help is much appreciated!
Debi

Hi everyone,

I'm sure this is just too simple but I have to ask.

Simple Pie won't recognize my rss feed
http://www.icerocket.com/search?tab=twitter&q=eltjobs+university&rss=1

that I made with Icerocket search for my twitter. Is there any way to get it to
recognize and parse this feed?

all I get is this message.

A feed could not be found at http://www.icerocket.com/search?tab=twitter

Thanks a bunch in advance. I'm just amazed and really love using simple pie! but
need to process this kind of feed.

David

If you are getting HTML response, you can not apply json_decode()
function. The response must be a valid json string.
Beside this, If the response is json, you can not use simplepie. You
can use simple curl_* functions to fetch json object.

The content from google is html. not feed. See the content-type below.

Are you sure you are not missing any part of the url?

When I set the feed URL in SimplePie for my Google Reader shared items and then
use <?php echo $item->get_description(); ?>, it returns a formatted HTML block
of the title, link, source, and summary.

All I want to receive is the summary text but there is now way to break it of
the HTML block.

Can I use the json_decode to format the incoming feed format from Google Reader
to create and object I can then use PHP to reference.

Here is my code as it is now:

<?php
  require 'http://www.inboundlogistics.com/php/simplepie.inc';
$url = 'http://www.google.com/reader/shared/03608782608274080367';
$cache_duration = '1';
$feed = new SimplePie();
$feed->set_feed_url($url);
$feed->set_cache_duration($cache_duration);
$feed->init();?>
---------------------
<?php
// loop through items
foreach ($feed->get_items(0, 5) as $item):
?>
<li class="feed"><a class="feed" href="<?php echo substr($item->get_permalink(
), 54, -43); ?>" target="_blank"><?php echo $item->get_title(); ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>

I was looking here as a potential solution:

http://php.net/manual/en/book.json.php

but does this mean I have to install it and then once installed how does it work
with SimplePie?

Shawn

I can display multiple feeds when I use

<a href="<?php echo $item->get_permalink(); ?>"><?php echo $item->get_title();
?></a>

but when I use get source
<?php if ($source = $item->get_source()) echo '<a href="' .
$source->get_permalink() . '"target="_blank">'; echo $source->get_title(); echo
'</a>'; ?>

Nada.
In this case the feeds are all from Google so are exactly the
same apart from their url
Any suggestions?
Much Appreciated.

Hello,
I am getting
Call to undefined function idn_to_utf8() in
/var/www/vhosts/..../libraries/SimplePie.php on line 7538

How to resolve this error?

Thanks in advance.
