Just finished hacking up rss2html.pl, a script I found to display RSS feeds in Perl.
It now accepts a number of items to display and doesn’t require the Magpie RSS lib that makes getting RSS feeds easier with PHP. Apparently you can’t run two copies of Magpie on one page, which I found annoying because I wanted to display my Twitter and Flickr updates at the same time.
My revised source code is here.
If you liked this post, why not sign up for my rss feed, or better yet, sign up for my email list to get extra awesome resources, tips and comedy!







Hi Jim –
Do you have any ideas regarding this error message?
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./rss2html.pl line 91.
Thanks for the script!
John
OK. nevermind. I think I figured it out…. ;)
