Wendy – the short answer is I used php, my brain and these three scripts (1, 2, and 3) as listed in the credits.
A longer answer is I set up an array, where each element in the array contains the link for a feed to be displayed. There is a form on the page where you select which feeds you want to view. When you submit the form, I add each feed you select into the array. Then I use script #1 to parse all the feeds contained in that array and display the links. I use script #2 to display only a certain number of links and hide the rest. And script #3 is also to hide the form to make the page look less cluttered.
An even longer answer is that I can explain it in more detail or I can let you look at the source code (it’s very messy). :p

That’s cool. But I was wondering how you made the portal?

Eek, sounds confusing! I think I’ll just stick with the site for now. Thanks for the explanation though!
