This explains what needs to be done to include the 10 latest threads from your forums on an external PHP page using the RSS2 feed.

---------------------------------Near the top of your php page, but after the <?php code include the following:

// ###################################################### // ## configuration  // ##  // ## $rss2_file= 'http://www.sawfirst.com/forum/external.php?type=rss2';  // ## Adjust this variable to point to your RSS2 feed     $rss2_file = 'http://www.sawfirst.com/forum/external.php?type=rss2';        // ## configuration end  // ######################################################  // ## Do not touch code below!              $is_item = false;  $tag = '';  $title = '';  $description = '';  $link = '';  $date = '';  $author = '';        function character_data($parser, $data)  {      global $is_item, $tag, $title, $description, $link, $date, $author;      if ($is_item)      {          switch ($tag)          {              case "TITLE":              $title .= $data;              break;                    case "DESCRIPTION":              $description .= $data;              break;                    case "LINK":              $link .= $data;              break;                    case "PUBDATE":              $date .= $data;              break;                    case "AUTHOR":              $author .= $data;              break;          }      }  }        function begin_element($parser, $name)  {      global $is_item, $tag;      if ($is_item)      {          $tag = $name;      }      else if ($name == "ITEM")      {          $is_item = true;      }  }        function end_element($parser, $name)  {      global $is_item, $title, $description, $link, $date, $author, $rss2_output;      if ($name == "ITEM")      {          $rss2_output .= "<dt><strong><a href='" . trim($link) . "'>" . htmlspecialchars(trim($title)) . "</a></strong> - " . htmlspecialchars(trim($date)) . " by <em>" . htmlspecialchars(trim($author)) . "</em></dt><dd>" . htmlspecialchars(trim($description)) . "</dd>";          $title = "";          $description = "";          $link = "";          $date = "";          $author = "";          $is_item = false;      }  }              $parser = xml_parser_create();        xml_set_element_handler($parser, "begin_element", "end_element");  xml_set_character_data_handler($parser, "character_data");  $fp = fopen($rss2_file,"r");        while ($data = fread($fp, 4096))  {      xml_parse($parser, $data, feof($fp));          }        fclose($fp);  xml_parser_free($parser);

1. Make sure to adjust the $xml_file variable at the very top of the code you just added.
2. Add the following code to wherever on that page you want to display the output:

   echo $rss2_output;
