Re: [fw-webservices] ZEND Feed and me trying to paginate it

Try doing:

$feed = new
Zend_Feed_Atom('http://wildoakrestaurant.blogspot.com/atom.xml');
$feedLimit = 5;


$f = new LimitIterator($feed, $feedLimit);

$f->seek(5) should return the last item since your feed limit is 5.  I will try and full test the example a little later when I can get to my computer.

Hi Corey,

Ok thanks. But I'm not sure I follow correctly how to use it.

I'm trying this - code fragment:

    $feed = new
Zend_Feed_Atom('http://wildoakrestaurant.blogspot.com/atom.xml');

                       $f = new LimitIterator($feed);
                       $f->seek(5);

                       $blog = "";
                       foreach ($f as $entry) {

                               $blog .= "<ul class=\"blogEntry\">";
                               $blog .= "<li class=\"blogTitle\">" . $entry->title() .  "</li>";
                           $blog .= "<li class=\"blogTime\">" . date("D jS F Y",
strtotime($entry->published())) . "</li>";
                               $blog .= "<li class=\"blogContent\">" . $entry->content('html') .
"</li>";
                               $blog .= "<li class=\"blogAuthor\">Author: " . $entry->author->name() .
"</li>";
                               $blog .= "</ul>";
                       }


Where I thought the LimitIterator Class could be used with the seek method
to find a certain point. But it doesnt seem to do that.

It's a tad outside of my understanding at the moment, which is why I'm
struggling a bit.

Simple things take me days sometimes :-)

Thanks for any help.
