Currency Converter
A simple currency converter that is using the daily updated currency rates from ECB.
Change Log Technology and design Web page written in PHP that downloads an xml feed from ECB. The xml feed is then parsed with SimpleXML and XPath to get the requested rates. There is also a second downloader that uses Unirest to download the exchange rates from Open Exchange Rates through an API at mashape. Those rates are not for public use due to the cost to access the API.
