javascript and php, which uses an XML feed from http://www.ecb.int/ to get
up to date exchange rates) to work with http://www.bank.lv/vk/xml.xml Not
worked for me. Any help will be appreciated.

-----------------
no, absolutely. This is small enough code. What not work? After I replaced
feed with http://www.bank.lv/vk/xml.xml , and changed other strings as
follows:
$xml = simplexml_load_file('http://www.bank.lv/vk/xml.xml');
$xmlString = $xml->asXML();
$pos = stripos($xmlString,"<Currency=");
$xmlString = substr($xmlString,$pos);
$pos2 = stripos($xmlString,"</CRates>");
$xmlString = substr($xmlString,0,$pos2);
$arr = explode("<CRates ",$xmlString);
saved as html page when tested it - show just form with drop down selectors
with no values inside, and "convert" action not work also.
Thanks.
