I seem to remember having problems when I was using the DomDocument on rss feeds that were submitted by users and not under my control. Many of them were not well-formed and that caused DomDocument to not work. Getting the creator of the rss feed to fix it wasn't an option, but I did have some luck enabling the "recovery" mode of libxml which is available in DomDocument->recovery property - http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.domdocument.php#domdocument.props.recover Also, if the content is not encoded in utf8, you might need to run utf8_decode on the strings to get the right data because I believe libxml uses utf8 internally. _______________________________________________ New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation
