Output

If you want to show it by your own, and not want to save it for later usage, use the show() function

$feed->show();

Save to data/ folder

Its pretty simple. Just use the save function and set the folder, and the xml will be written using the pcache.

$rssfile			= $pcache->FilePath('last_news.xml', 'eqdkp');
$feed->save($rssfile);
