Hello,

I am trying to get some news working on my site. Here is the xml script..
[ Register or login to view links on this board.]

I thought I added this to a block to get it working, but when I do and push create block, I get a response that says bad html formatting..

I must be way off track here somewhere, I'd appreciate it if you can point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Bob

No see what happens is the xml gets parsed look at your xml for the ' signs you will see squares you need to add something like:

".htmlspecialchars."

which really you can only do in PHP. Is there some reason you dont just use your backend.php?

I am trying to add news to my site, not syndicate my news ( I thought that is what backend.php was used for) This is what I get from sites like [ Register or login to view links on this board.]

I have been trying to add this as a new block in the rss url line, but keep getting errors.

Telli, another note, I have been trying to get some info from your site by e-mail, (redhot and kelli) for a couple weeks, but I am not getting any answers back to my questions. I would like to speak with you directly about some quotes for some script installations on my site.

Thanks again,

Bob

Telli, I figured out my mistake of trying to past the code on the link, rather than the link to the code itself.. DOH!!

Sometimes the obvious is hard to see lol.

I would still like to discuss some script install pricing.

Thanks again,

Bob

hit post twice, sorry.
