local xml file for spry usage

[incorrectio]

Hi There,
After my last post about this subject I have been browsing the web for an awnser which would enable me to get this done, but without any success.

What I'd like is a method (javascript or php would be fine) to get a remote xml feed from flickr to be saved locally for quick access by spry.

I'm not a real coder, so it is hard for me to find out. Please can anyone help?

Kind regards,

Benjamin

David,
I've read the article, but somehow I do not know what you mean...

Kind regards,

The cURL script in that article acts as a proxy for a remote XML feed.

If your hosting company hasn't disabled allow_url_fopen, you can create
an even simpler script:

<?php
$url = ' http://www.example.com/my.xml';
$remote = file_get_contents($url);
header('Content-type:text/xml');
echo $remote;
?>
