Read the manual closely and you will notice that the second argument of
xml_parse_into_struct() should be a string, not a resource.
The following would work better:
$file = file_get_contents($feed);
if ($file) {
xml_parse_into_struct( $xml_parser, $file, $vals, $index );
}

Again, when you read the manual, you will notice that you don't extract the
values from the resource stored in $xml_parser, but that
xml_parse_into_struct() uses the last two arguments to create an array of
keys and values and an array of indexes which matches the positions of the
elements in the document.
Check the output of print_r() on both arrays to see what I mean.
Please read http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.xml.php for more info and
examples.
