I know no PHP so I"m sorry I can't help you with syntax.
You realise already that a web service is not RSS as well.
Although both use XML standards, those XML standards are not the same.
You might like to get him to find out how to consume a web service via PHP, try searching Google with something like this:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=php+consume+%22web+service%22
Going from that I found this site that looked kinda interesting:

I have a friend who is used to consuming RSS feeds, and has a PHP site. I
want to let him use my web service, built on CFMX6.1 using a CFC, but the
syntax is not what he's used to.
The web service is at http://bluegrass.org.au/_cfcs/anniversaries.cfc?wsdl
and the method for him to use is getthisweeksevents
I know it works because I'm using it myself on another coldfusion site, but he says it has to be one line only, and when he sends my url to his rss feed validator it comes up invalid. (Surprise surprise - its not RSS) Rather than get into a yes-it-works/no-it-doesn't argument with him, what I'd like to do is I'd like to give him the php syntax to make it work. Can anyone tell me please?
