in external file - dont forget to add

<?php

$feed = new SimplePie('http://www...........com/search/rss.html?s=xxxxxx&l=xxxx&lid=xxxxxx');

?>

<?php foreach ($feed->get_items() as $item): ?>

attention aux guillemets, si la page est en php il faut utiliser ' et non "

Salut les gars... c'est vraiment sympa de me donner un coup de main : c'est pour un pote que je cherche à mettre ça en place.

But for for all snoozers let's go on in english now.

Whatever I try I still get the same error:

Quote

Fatal error: Call to a member function get_permalink() on a non-object in D:\xampp\htdocs\richard\script.php on line 2

Im my index file I got:

Quote

<?php require 'php/simplepie.inc'; ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
bla bla bla

In the script:

Quote

<div class="header">
<h1><a href="<?php echo $feed->get_permalink(); ?>"><?php echo $feed->get_title(); ?></a></h1>
<p><?php echo $feed->get_description(); ?></p>
</div>
<?php
// We'll process this feed with all of the default options.
$feed = new SimplePie('http://simplepie.org/blog/feed/');
?>
<?php
/*
Here, we'll loop through all of the items in the feed, and $item represents the current item in the loop.
*/
foreach ($feed->get_items() as $item):
?>

<div class="item">
<h2><a href="<?php echo $item->get_permalink(); ?>"><?php echo $item->get_title(); ?></a></h2>
<p><?php echo $item->get_description(); ?></p>
<p><small>Posted on <?php echo $item->get_date('j F Y | g:i a'); ?></small></p>
</div>

<?php endforeach; ?>

I thought I could make it fingers in the nose as we say in France, but no way: whatever I try give the same result.

I think you have parse error. your script must be simple text file (with html extention) and with 4 lines of code. For example as mine is
******************************************************************
<?php

$feed = new SimplePie('http://www.xxxx.com/xxxx/rss.html?s=xxxx&l=xxxxx&lid=1111111');

?>

<TABLE width="100%">

<TR>
<TD><?php foreach ($feed->get_items() as $item):
   ?>

         <h2><a href="<?php echo $item->get_permalink(); ?>"><?php echo $item->get_title(); ?></a></h2>
         <p><?php echo $item->get_description(); ?></p>

</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>

    <?php endforeach; ?>

</TD>
</TR>

</TABLE>
************************************************************
that's all. nothing else. Then in admin area, when creating a new file you make [include] your_text_file.html [/include]

If I understand the error message, the error is NORMAL: the $feed object (instance) should be initialized first.

In other words, $feed = new SimplePie('http://simplepie.org/blog/feed/'); should appears BEFORE $feed->get_permalink(); and friends.

Try to rewrite your script and it should work.

If it works, try to move the include back in the script (instead of snews's index.php file).

I've just tried this setup on my dev machine with the code from SimplePie's documentation (http://simplepie.org/wiki/setup/sample_page): it works like a charm, I confirm.

No need to modify index.php, the include statement can be in your custom PHP script (the one you call from your actual snews page). You just have to take care of the actual path of simplepie.inc. By the way, you don't have to put it in specific dir (like "php" in the documentation), it can live in the same dir (root) as index.php and snews.php, no worries.

For example I've put it in a "simplepie" dir and I've renamed it to simplepie.inc.php: it still works as expected.

Same thing for the 'cache' dir: by default it has to be in the same dir as your custom script, but this can be changed by editing simplepie.inc, line 490 (the path is relative to your custom script, not simplepie.inc itself because of the include statement).

The ball's in your court! :-)
