XML reader

FictionNet asked 4 years ago
I’m trying to find an XML reader so I can display an XML feed on one of my pages.

I’ve never done this before so I searched for some info and it seems that MagpieRSS is quite popular but when I download it (in tar format), there are no files found when I unzip.

There are many free scripts that can do this.. try free scripts resources such as xhttp://www.hotscripts.com/

try to find a script that keeps a cached copy of the feed on your server and updates it based on a predefined interval. This will help you keep your site loading speed as fast as possible as well as save you from unneeded extra bandwidth costs.

Magpie is excellent and widely used – and free. Its PHP and pretty easy to install and very versatile.

Magpie is definitely the best open source version… I would shoot on over to Sourceforge.net and try to re-download that one.
