 * Hmm… Im getting this Magpie error when trying to load my page… The strange thing
   is, that if I hit reload then I will see my parsed rss feed…
 * `MagpieRSS: Failed to fetch http://mysite.org/word/?feed=rss2 (HTTP Response:)`
 * The code im using to grab the rss is:
 *     ```
       <?php include('magpie/rss_fetch.inc');
   
       error_reporting(E_ERROR);
   
       $rss = fetch_rss('http://mysite.org/word/?feed=rss2');
       if ($rss) {
         $items = array_slice($rss->items, 0, 5);
         foreach ($items as $item )
        {   echo '<li><a href="'.$item['link'].'">'.$item['title'].'</a> - '.date("j M", strtotime($item['pubdate'])).'</li>';  }
       }
       else
       {
         echo '<h2>Error:</h2><p>'.magpie_error().'</p>';
       }
       // Restore original error reporting value
       @ini_restore('error_reporting');
       ?>
       ```
   
 * can it be cache related?? Becouse I have been experimenting with the cache dir,
   cus it didnt update immediately, so i changed the cache dir in fetch.inc to, 
   and then updated it immediately…
 * `define('MAGPIE_CACHE_DIR', 'http://www.mysite.org/magpie/cache/');`
 * Please, is there anyone who has a clue???
