Note Submitter: lthorne at thornedigital dot com ---- I' working on a custom feed reader and I'm getting the nbsp entity not defined error in Facebook feeds. I have no control over their feed, so is there a way to handle the improperly formed XML as I pull the feed to my custom php/mysql based RSS reader? I'm getting the nbsp entity not defined error using a basic load function, but whoever wrote facebook's RSS feeds didn't properly form them so I get nbsp, euro and copy 'Entity Not Defined errors', (obviously they are using HTML's &...; in the feeds without the entity definitions) $doc = new DOMDocument(); $doc->load($url); also getting xmlParseEntityRef: no name error, but I'll deal with that later... Is there any way to handle this without having access to fix facebook's feed? (i.e. use an option for load($url,'') function so it won't die when it tries to parse facebooks crappy feeds. I have twitter, blogs, cnn, espn, et al - all these work fine except for facebook's notifications and status feeds. They are not properly formed XML...
