xml feed

Also, I removed your attachments and links as they had database passwords in them.

Hi Ross,

Nice to work with you again.

I did what you sugguested and added .php to end of file- linkname and this is the error message I get now:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/f/a/2/20156/20156/public_html/cmsAdmin/streeteasy.xml.php on line 6

Hmmm?

Update: Removed Attachments (Dave)

Hi Randy,

There's some PHP errors in the code:
- this die("Could not connect: ' should be die("Could not connect: "
- You need to close your PHP tag before <?xml like this ?> <?xml
- and there's just a lot more PHP code that needs to be written.

Also, please be careful not to post PHP files with your database passwords as this is a public forum and you don't want everyone to know those.
(I've removed your attachments)

I'd recommend starting with the RSS feed example here:
http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/cmsbuilder/rss_feeds.html

Or having us doing this as a custom job for you.

Hope that helps!

Hi Dave,

Thanks for getting back to me. I actually do have an rss feed up and running:

feed://www.hamptonhomesre.com/cmsAdmin/rss.xml.php

The problem is the RE agencies said they couldn't take that they wanted a XML feed.

Hi Randy,

Well that would make a good starting point. RSS is actually XML as well. XML is just the data format where you have <tags>around things</tags> like that.

We'd done some feeds like that before, you just need to make your tags match theirs.

Hope that helps!

I am confused. I made the rss feed and it works I sent you the link and the link of the xml feed that I have that doesn't work which includes their tags like you mentioned.

can you help me figure out what I am doing wrong or can I hire you to fix it?

Hi Randy,

Sure, we can do it for you. I'll try and give you a call right now. If I don't get through feel free to email me at dave@interactivetools.com and we can sort out the details.

Thanks!
