I have installed the latest Simplepie code (1.2.1) and I am using the demo code they provide:
<?php
require 'simplepie.inc';
$url = 'http://news.google.com/news?ned=us&topic=h&output=rss';
$feed = new SimplePie();
$feed->set_feed_url($url);
$feed->init();
// default starting item
$start = 0;
// default number of items to display. 0 = all
$length = 0;
// if single item, set start to item number and length to 1
if(isset($_GET['item']))
{
$start = $_GET['item'];
$length = 1;
}
// set item link to script uri
$link = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
// loop through items
foreach($feed->get_items($start,$length) as $key=>$item)
{
// set query string to item number
$queryString = '?item=' . $key;
// if we're displaying a single item, set item link to itself and set query string to nothing
if(isset($_GET['item']))
{
$link = $item->get_link();
$queryString = '';
}
// display item title and date
echo '<a href="' . $link . $queryString . '">' . $item->get_title() . '</a>';
echo ' <small>'.$item->get_date().'</small><br>';
// if single item, display content
if(isset($_GET['item']))
{
echo ' <small>'.$item->get_content().'</small><br>';
}
echo '<br>';
}
?>
However, when I load the page in my browser, I get dozens of lines saying:
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /home/pliggs/public_html/rss/simplepie.inc on line 7722
Anyone know what's wrong?
I ran their compatibility test and it shows all things have passed.
