Hi,

I've been using the ANN newsfeed on my website, it's great!
However, I noticed that the newsfeed right now returns a blank page,
(mysql no errors) My username and news password are correct,
Am I missing something? I can't figure out what's the problem,
the connection on my database seems okay.

check it out on

Help! Shocked

The newsfeed returns a blank page if the news haven't changed since the last time you fetched them. I notice that your site calls getnews.php every time the page is loaded. That's a bit superfluous; the news aren't updated every second. You should only fetch the news every hour or so, and if the result is blank then it means the news haven't changed and you should simply display the last value that you recorded.
