About:
feedParser was created due to the lack of a good, flexible, class-based RSS feed parser for PHP. It has been built as a class, and currently handles RSS 0.91, RSS 0.92, RSS 0.93, RSS 1.0, and RSS 2.0 feeds. For channels it grabs the title, description, link, and creator. For items it grabs the title, description, link, and date. It also provides a form of the date converted into the local timezone to facilitate cronological sorting of items. The dates are provided in UNIX timestamp format for easy manipulation by other PHP functions.

Release focus: Minor bugfixes

Changes:
To correct the problems with entity parsing using PHP's expat library, the parseEntities() method was added. This method parses out the valid entities before sending the XML data to xmlParser. feedParser now handles international entities correctly.

...you should REALLY consider adding your name to the class' source code, Jim. ;)
