reading twitter's rss search feed with simple xml_问答_开发者

Having some trouble selecting some nodes in the rss feed for twitter's search

the rss url is here

http://search.twitter.com/search.rss?q=twitfile

each item looks like this

<item>
  <title>RT @TwittBoy: TwitFile - Comparte tus archivos en Twitter (hasta 200Mb) http://bit.ly/xYNsM</title>
  <link>http://twitter.com/MarielaCelita/statuses/5990165590</link>

  <media:content type="image/jpg" width="48" height="48" url="http://a3.twimg.com/profile_images/537676869/orkut_normal.jpg"/>
  <google:image_link>http://a3.twimg.com/profile_images/537676869/orkut_normal.jpg</google:image_link>
</item>

My php is below

  foreach ($twitter_xml->channel->item as $key) {
$screenname = $key->{"author"};
$date = $key->{"pubDate"};
$profimg = $key->{"google:image_link"};
$link = $key->{"link"};
$title = $key->{"title"};
echo"
                        <li>
                        <a href=$link><img width=48 height=48 src=\"$profimg\"></a>
                        <h5><a href=$link>$author</a></h5>
                        <p class=info><a href=$link>$title</a></p>
开发者_运维百科                        </li>
";

Problem is nothing is being echoed, i mean from the rss feed, if there are 20 results, its looping 20 times, just no data

In the code, $screenname is assigned a value but you are echoing $author.
To get elements within namespaces like google:image_link ,you will have to do this:

$g = $key->children("http://base.google.com/ns/1.0"); $profimg = $g->{"image_link"};

If you are wondering where did I get "http://base.google.com/ns/1.0" from, the namespace is mentioned in the second line of the rss feed.

$url="http://search.twitter.com/search.rss?q=twitfile";
$twitter_xml = simplexml_load_file($url); 

foreach ($twitter_xml->channel->item as $key) {
    $author = $key->{"author"};
    $date = $key->{"pubDate"};
    $link = $key->{"link"};
    $title = $key->{"title"};
    $g = $key->children("http://base.google.com/ns/1.0"); 
    $profimg = $g->{"image_link"};
    echo"
                            <li>
                            <a href=$link><img width=48 height=48 src=\"$profimg\"></a>
                            <h5><a href=$link>$author</a></h5>
                            <p class=info><a href=$link>$title</a></p>
                            </li>
    ";
    $xml = $twitter_xml;
}

This code works.

Set error_reporting(E_ALL); and you'll see that $author isn't defined.

You can't access <google:image_link/> this way, you'll have to use XPath or children()

$key->children("google", true)->image_link;

If you use SimpleDOM, there's a shortcut that returns the first element of an XPath result:

$key->firstOf("google:image_link");

if (!$xml = simplexml_load_file('http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q='.urlencode      ($terms)))
    {
       throw new RuntimeException('Unable to load or parse search results feed');
    }
    if (!count($entries = $xml->entry))
    {
        throw new RuntimeException('No entry found');
    }
    for($i=0;$i<count($entries);$i++)
    {
       $title[$i] = $entries[$i]->title;
        //etc.. continue description,,,,,

    }

I made this and it works :)) $sea_name is the keyword your looking for...

<?php
function twitter_feed( $sea_name ){
    $endpoint = 'http://search.twitter.com/search.rss?q='.urlencode($sea_name);  // URL to call
    $resp = simplexml_load_file($endpoint);

    // Check to see if the response was loaded, else print an error
     if ($resp) {
        $results = '';
        $counter=0;
        // If the response was loaded, parse it and build links  
        foreach($resp->channel->item as $item) {
            //var_dump($item);
            preg_match("/\((.*?)\)/", $item->author, $blah);
            $content = $item->children("http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" );
                        $imageUrl = getXmlAttribute( $content, "url" );
            echo '
            <div class="twitter-item">
                <img src="'.$imageUrl.'" />
                <span class="twit">'.$blah[1].'</span><br />
                <span class="twit-content">'.$item->title.'</span>
                <br style="clear:both; line-height:0;margin:0;padding:0;">
            </div>';
            $counter++;
        }
    }
    // If there was no response, print an error
    else {
        $results = "Oops! Must not have gotten the response!";
    }
    echo $results;
}

function getXmlAttribute( SimpleXMLElement $xmlElement, $attribute ) {
    foreach( $xmlElement->attributes() as $name => $value ) {
        if( $name == $attribute ) {
        return (string)$value;
        }
    }
}
?>

The object will contain somthing like:

<!-- SimpleXMLElement Object
(
    [title] => Before I go to bed, I just want to say I've just seen Peter Kay's CIN cartoon video for the 1st time... one word... WOW.

You can use any of it inside the foreach look and echo them such as $item->author, $item->link, etc....any other attributes you can use the getattribute function...
