Also means that browsers with XML support will parse the raw XML into a pretty style.

Ive been playing with the XML logs my chat client outputs and using PHP in combination with some AJAX. As a little mini project to test my abilities/to learn something new i made a web view of these logs which update as the logs grow. Now with this I could have a user list next to this which would be nice. Something for me to do to reinforce what i have learnt so far. One thing though, this may be picking at something purely cosmetic but I noticed that the Content-type of this XML is text/html and iirc ive had issues with some javascript engines not liking this and wanted a text/xml content type. I cant remember the exactly what i was trying to do or which browsers but to avoid issues maybe <code> header('Content-type: text/xml'); </code> could be added into your PHP script (not to the example but the file located at http://www.geekshed.net/usertable.php) Up to you whether you bother doing this or not as it could be more effort than worth. Its up to you :). Wow thats fairly handy. Ive been playing with the XML logs my chat client outputs and using PHP in combination with some AJAX.

If your browsers crash then it is the fault of your computer. Phil Eh, it’s server side code that does nothing but generate a HTML table.

RSS is just XML anyway so it's a very similar concept to put the topic from RSS on your site: <?php // Edit This $chan = 'phil'; // Don't edit this $xml = simplexml_load_file('http://rss.geekshed.net/?type=single&channel='.$chan); ?> <!-- Edit this HTML to suit your layout --> #<?php echo $chan; ?> Topic: <?php echo $xml->channel->item->description; ?> Little need to do that.

Have you ever thought about merging this with the channel topic RSS feed into a tiny API? This is pretty cool.
