Custom RSS feed block - or how does PHPnuke display RSS feed

Guest

In my attempts to find a way to display 2 RSS feeds, side by side, I have started making my own block.

I know there is a PHP nuke RSS feed block that does all this automatically for you, but I can't see that block's code. Where is it stored??? How does it get the headlines from the RSS feed URL you provide?

If I could see that code or how to read a RSS feed, I could jsut put that code into a table and my problems would be solved.....

Anyone know?

check the name of the block, then go to your blocks folder and find the block's name.php file...there is your code.

um yes, that is where the files are for main blocks.... but blocks fo type RSS/RDF are not stored there. I have looked through the entire nuke directory and found no mention of an RSS block. It must be a function defined in some file and the RSS URL is probably stored in the database.

Thats a guess though, I'm mainly trying to find the code that PHPnuke comes with (and uses) to display user defined RSS feeds on your site
