Author

Simple class for parsing RSS feeds.

Returns feed as array so you can do what you wish with results.

It supports SimpleXML parsing, the old XML parser and even text parser, based on regexps.

There is also support for multiple ways to read the feed (cURL, file_get_contents and fopen). It also supports category tags.
