Netflix Queue via AJAX and RSS

By Jacob Cohen | February 21, 2007

This is an attempt to display my Netflix queue (or at least, a few items from it) using AJAX and Netflix’s RSS feed.

My Netflix Queue

To avoid having to make a cross-domain call to get my Netflix queue, I created a small PHP script on my server that proxies the Netflix RSS feed. To display the images, I pull the movie ID out of the item link and generate an image path for Netflix’s image servers. There’s probably a better way of doing this, though.
