I've had problems with my site being hacked. That's why the link wasn't working.
Here's the code for the above link: http://bonrouge.com/demos/xml_parser_2.php <?php
function xml_parser($page,$container,$tags,$number) {
if (!$number) {$number=100;}
$stories=0;
$xml=file_get_contents($page);
preg_match_all("/<$container>.+<\/$container>/sU",$xml, $items);
$items=$items[0];
$itemsArray=array();
foreach ($items as $item) {
for($i=0; $i<count($tags); $i++) {
preg_match("/<$tags[$i](.+)(<\/$tags[$i]>|\/>)/sU", $item, $tag);
$this[$i]=preg_replace("/<$tags[$i]>(.+)(<\/$tags[$i]>|\/>)/sU",'$1',$tag);
$this[$i]=preg_replace("/<!\[CDATA\[(.+)\]\]>/sU",'$1',$this[$i]);
$this[$i]=array_map('html_entity_decode', $this[$i]);
}
if (count($itemsArray)<$number) {array_push($itemsArray, $this);}
}
$theData="<dl>";
foreach ($itemsArray as $item) {
for($i=0; $i<count($tags); $i++) {
$data[$i]=$item[$i][0];
}
$title=$data[0];
$description=preg_replace("/<img(.+)><\/img>/sU",'<img$1 >',$data[1]);
$description=preg_replace("/<img(.+)\/>/sU",'<img$1 />',$description);
$link=preg_replace("/<link.+href=\"(.+)\"(.+|)\/>/sU",'$1',$data[2]);
$date=$data[3];
$theData.="
<dt><a href=\"$link\">$title</a></dt>
<dd class=\"story\">$description</dd>
<dd>Date: $date</dd>\r";
}
$theData.="</dl>";
return $theData;
}
$container='item';
$tags=array('title','description','link','pubDate');
$mtv=xml_parser("http://www.mtv.com/rss/news/latestcached.jhtml?partner=rssMozilla",$container,$tags,5);
$bbc=xml_parser("http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/front_page/rss.xml",$container,$tags,10);
$cnn=xml_parser("http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss",$container,$tags,10);
$container='entry';
$tags=array('title','content','link','published');
$flickr=xml_parser("http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne",$container,$tags,10);

I looked at the images in the feed - they seem to be 1px x 1px images. Strange. As for that site - I don't know how they're doing that, but you can see from the url of the image that it's from that site rather than directly from CNN. http://www.semo.net/tmp/news_img.jpg. Maybe you could ask the site owner how it's done.
