I am guessing that you want to take a list form a external site and display their links on your site? So what you do is the following: 1. Create a php page using the TP supplied code. [code]<?php function fetchRemoteURL ( $strURL ) { $strResult = ''; $fh = fopen ( $strURL, "rb"); if ( $fh ) { while ( !feof ( $fh ) ) $strResult .= fread ( $fh, 8192 ) ; } return $strResult; } header('Content-type: text/xml'); print fetchRemoteURL('http://jobs.cerebra.co.uk/xml.php?number=5'); ?>[/code] 2. Upload this page to your web server. You will now be able to call it via http://yoursite.com/yourfile.php since the XML now appears to come from your site you have gotten around the off site issue. 3. Now you can use your JavaScript knowledge to parse this file and do the display stuff based on the AJAX stuff you mentioned before.
