To say I'm a novice would be an understatement. And again, excuse the extreme lack of basic knowledge here, I'm really trying to understand how this works, beyond simply getting it to function as others have on their respective guild sites.

If your not getting an error message when browsing to your php page, I'll assume you have curl compiled into php.

Your code doesn't look wrong, however, you never output the variable holding the results from the webserver. If the code you posted is exactly and completely your code, I understand why you see nothing.

Try this:

Code:

<?php 
$url = 'http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=YOUR+SERVER&n=YOUR+GUILD&p=1';
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT,  "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1");
    
    $rosterxml = curl_exec($ch);
    
    echo $rosterxml;  #ADDED
?>
