Pausing RSS scroller help please

[Bashy]

Hello all

I would like a little help with this great script please?

I have it working and have had it working for some time..
I have just tried today to add a further box on the same page
although the adding the second box is not the issue, this issue
is the content of the RSS feed, its showing as html code,

Please see here and its the box at the bottom of the page....

Yours hopefully

Regards

As I suspected, the contents in your RSS feeds have all been parsed by default for conversion to HTML entity where applicable (ie: "<" becomes "b&gt;") etc. Most RSS feeds do not do this.

Assuming your server is running PHP 4.3 or above, you can use the function html_entity_decode() to easily reverse HTML entities. Inside scrollerbridge.php, try changing the below function at the very end with the changes in red:

function slashit($what){ //Encode text for storing in JavaScript array
$newstring=str_replace(''', '\'', $what); //replace those half valid apostrophe entities with actual apostrophes
$newstring=html_entity_decode($newstring) //undo HTML entities
return rawurlencode($newstring);
}
