If you mean to just READ the XML, do this:
<?php
$xml = file_get_contents("http://news.google.com/?output=rss") or
die("Unable to read Google RSS at this time. Please try again
later.");
?>
If you need to get just the headlines, you could do:
<?php
preg_match_all("/<title>([^<]*)<\\/title>/sU", $xml, $headlines);
var_dump($headlines[1]);
?>
You could do similar work to get any of the content you wanted from
the XML.
Or you could use Google to search for "PHP RSS parser" and find
innumerable solutions.
