Reverse the order of my RSS feed

I need to reverse the order of my feed so it displays as oldest item first.

I think i need to use the asort/usort function but I'm not sure where to start

I'm using the feed to populate the location drop down field in a form

<?php
  header("Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8");
  require("MagicParser.php");
  function myRecordHandler($row)
  {
        echo "<option value=\"".$row['TITLE']."\">".$row['TITLE']."</option>\n  ";
  }
  $url = "http://testflight.co.uk/feed?cat=9";
  MagicParser_parse($url,"myRecordHandler","xml|RSS/CHANNEL/ITEM/");
?>

Hi Iain,

The trick is to load the rows into an array; reverse the array using PHP's array_revers() function, and then display as before using foreach() - have a go with something like this:

<?php
  header("Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8");
  require("MagicParser.php");
  $rows = array();
  function myRecordHandler($row)
  {
    global $rows;
    $rows[] = $row;
  }
  $url = "http://testflight.co.uk/feed?cat=9";
  MagicParser_parse($url,"myRecordHandler","xml|RSS/CHANNEL/ITEM/");
  function myDisplayRecordHandler($row)
  {
        echo "<option value=\"".$row['TITLE']."\">".$row['TITLE']."</option>\n  ";
  }
  $rows = array_reverse($rows);
  foreach($rows as $row)
  {
    myDisplayRecordHandler($row);
  }
?>
