How to create news feeds. (part III)
You are actually halfway through by the time you’re reading this post. If you have religiously done the previous instructions correctly, expect that you will soon have a news feed of your own. Your index.php page serves as your window, so basically, it is just like an interface. What you need to make is an HTML page full of tables (but not too many) so as just to separate the news from each other. And then you have to make use of this coding to shorten and convert lines into a string:
$list = getNewsList();
foreach ($list as $value) {
$newsData = file(“news/”.$value);
$newsTitle = $newsData[0];
$submitDate = $newsData[1];
unset ($newsData['0']);
unset ($newsData['1']);
$newsContent = “”;
foreach ($newsData as $value) {
$newsContent .= $value;
}
echo “$newsTitle
$submitDate”;
echo “”.$newsContent.
”
