Hiya!
I'm trying to include my blog- hosted at blogger.com - to my website. The blog is in an rss-feed. Blogger includes the tags that I use in the blog as they are, <a>, <br/> and <img> for example. When I try to read the blogs, it outputs the title and the author correctly, but the description that contains those tags doesn't show as it should.
Here's the php
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<?php
if(!($xmlparser = xml_parser_create())){
die("Cannot create parser");
}
$postcount = 0;
$current = "";
function start_tag($parser, $name, $attribs){
global $current;
$current = $name;
global $postcount;
global $postdata;
}
function end_tag($parser, $name){
global $postcount;
if($name=="ITEM"){
$postcount ++;
}
global $postdata;
}
function tag_contents($parser, $data){
global $current;

global $postdata;
$data = str_replace("ä", "ä", $data);
$data = str_replace("Ä", "Ä", $data);
$data = str_replace("ö", "ö", $data);
$data = str_replace("Ö", "Ö", $data);
if($current == "TITLE"){
$postdata[$postcount]["title"] = $data;
}
if($current == "AUTHOR"){
$postdata[$postcount]["author"] = $data;

$postdata[$postcount]["description"] = $data;

echo "<p>".$postdata[$i]["description"]."</p>";
}
?>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>... and xml can be found at http://dirtybirdrexx.blogspot.com/rss.xml
This code outputs this:
Latest blogs:
About Subliminal EP (by the Slowdowns)
The Beginning (by Dirtybird Rexx)
all blogs
About Subliminal EP (by the Slowdowns)
- the Slowdowns
The Beginning (by Dirtybird Rexx)
- Jyri of DBR
When it should output a lot more text before those signatures (the Slowdowns and Jyri of DBR). I think it has something to do with the <br /> -tags just before the signatures. So I need to find the solution how to stop the description from breaking. I've tried the str_replace function before putting $data to the $postdata -array, but it didn't work.
Help, anyone?
