Processing RSS -- library

Post by alex.barylski »

Anyone know of a library which I can use to read a RSS XML feed and convert it into an array so I can rendered the output nicely within my web page?

Does Zend offer anything like this? What are it's dependencies? Will I require the whole library or will I be able to extract *only* a single directory?

Any related, smaller libraries would be of use too possibly...

Zend_Feed - http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.feed.html
Like most of the ZF components, you just need the component tree.

Magpie RSS & Simple Pie come to mind - not sure about the whole array part though.
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
