I know how to read and parse XML with PHP, but is there a way to make it auto advance through pages of XML data automatically? I work for a TV station that is featuring open houses via a real estate xml feed and need to show one or two houses at a time for a half hour without requiring someone to sit there and advance the pages themselves. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

You could have PHP output the necessary JavaScript to redirect to the next page.

Here's how to redirect to a new page: How can I make a redirect page in jQuery/JavaScript? combine that with setTimeout() to add a delay.

I'm not sure whether I would rely on this for a live TV feed, though - I'd be too scared of the embarrassment of the browser crashing, or an error popping up....
