RSS Grabber
RSS Grabber is an object oriented PHP script that grabs and parses RSS syndications for reposting on secondary websites. The results can be stripped of all formatting to give the flexibility of customizing the syndication to conform to any given mobile or standard website design. RSS Grabber also allows you to maintain the feed's original formatting as well. It caches and stores the results for fast access and returns an array of information based on available tags that provides more information about the channel and each item on the page.
AJAX or not
The working example to your right is written using AJAX. Javascript is required for this to function however, it can be implemented with or without use of AJAX for our non-javascript using compadres. Some feeds in the drop down menu will result in errors. This is intentional.
