me again, with another problem .:) http://www.mixology.be/php4apps/phptest.php (refers to http://mixology.be/joomla1.5test/ ) and http://www.mixology.be/php4apps/acodtest.php ( refers to ovl.acod-spoor.be ) should give the same result. But they don't :-( . Both php files can be found on http://www.mixology.be/php4apps/APP.zip . Anyony who sees where I go wrong ?

looking...

Haven't seen that code in a long time! LOL. One URL loads fine. The phptest.php file. The other one shows an ugly error. You mentioned that these should "give the same result" Not sure how this is possible. One file uses content from http://mixology.be/...... the other one loads content from http://ovl.acod-spoor.... The content at these two URL's is not the same. So, the .php your using is using a method called: simplexml_load_file() This is a pretty standard .php method. The method REQUIRES valid XML data. Load http://www.mixology.be/php4apps/acodtest.php in your browser, you'll see some ugly errors reported by .php. Warning: simplexml_load_file() [function.simplexml-load-file]: http://ovl.acod-spoor.be/index.php?format=feed&type=rss:133: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document in /home/mixology/domains/mixology.be/public_html/php4apps/acodtest.php on line 189 This says it all. The simplexml_load_file() call can't load the content because it's not valid XML. XML is tricky tricky. Super tricky in some cases. The parser error says it's finding extra content at the end of the document. It's super tough to know what this content is... Load the URL's in your browser. View Source. This source is what the script is loading. It looks like all sorts of HTML mixed with all sorts of RSS type data. Look at the .php script, it's expecting XML / RSS type data :-) Not sure if that helps or not but for sure the issue is with the simplexml_load_file() call on line 189 of acodtest.php

problem is solved :) Just reinstalled the copy of the site ... Thanks for reading my Q. ! Yuri - Belgium - Ghent
