Hi all, I have spent time trying to solve this problem and this is as far as ive got. basically im trying to pull images from rss feeds. i use magpie to process the feeds as shown below.. this snippet is within a class
function getImagesUrl($str) {
$a = array();
$pos = 0;
$topos;
$init = 1;
while($init) {
$pos = strpos($str, "img", $pos);
if($pos != FALSE) {
$topos = strpos($str, ">", $pos);
$imagetag = substr($str, $pos, ($topos - $pos));
$url = $this->getImageUrl($imagetag);
$pos = $topos;
array_push($a, $url);
}
else {
$init = 0;
}
}
return $a;
}
/*
* get the full url inside src atribute in <img>
*/
function getImageUrl($image) {
$p = strpos($image, "src=", 0);
$p+= 5; // remove o src="
$tp = strpos($image, '" ', $p);
$str = substr($image, $p, ($tp - $p));
return $str;
}
using the above functions... i call them this way... so far this outputs the data i'll paste later on
@$rss = fetch_rss($rsso->url);
if (@$rss)
{
$items=$rss->items;
foreach ($items as $item )
{
if (isset($item['title'])&&isset($item['description']))
{
$hash=md5($this->es($item['title']).$this->es($item['description']));
$content = $item['content'];
foreach($content as $c) {
// get the images on content
$arr = $this->getImagesUrl($c);
print_r($arr);
}
here is an example of output
