Thanks for the responses regarding this. I ended up using MagpieRSS:
This is the code. I stripped out some of the more task specific testing,
but this is the basic skeleton. Works fine...
<?php define('MAGPIE_DIR', './magpierss/');
require_once(MAGPIE_DIR.'rss_fetch.inc'); $url = "http://your.url.com/";;
$yourXML = fopen("yourxml.xml", 'w'); fwrite($yourXML, "<?xml
version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"); fwrite($yourXML,
"\t<channel>\n"); $linksCount = 0; if($url){ $rss = fetch_rss($url);
foreach($rss->items as $item){ if($linksCount > ($numItems-1)){
break; } $item = array($item['title'],$item['date'],$item['link']);
$items[$linksCount] = $item; $linksCount++; } } for($i=$linksCount;
$i>0; $i--){ $thisItem = $items[$i-1]; fwrite($latestNewsXML,
"\t\t<item>\n"); fwrite($latestNewsXML, "\t\t\t<title>" . $thisItem[0]
. "</title>\n"); fwrite($latestNewsXML, "\t\t\t<date>" . $thisItem[2] .
"</date>\n"); fwrite($latestNewsXML, "\t\t\t<link>" . $thisItem[1] .
"</link>\n"); fwrite($latestNewsXML, "\t\t</item>\n"); }
fwrite($latestNewsXML, "\t</channel>\n"); fclose($latestNewsXML);?>
