OPML Parsin' All night Long!


I wrote up a little php class to parse an OPML file. What is OPML? you might ask. Well ask and you will recieve! It’s not anything specific really, but it’s the default file format for communicating lists of RSS feeds. Syndirella , NetNewsWire, and maybe other news aggregating programs support the format.

In any case I wanted to put my list of blogs I read up on my site without having to type them all in, so what did I do? I spent 45 minutes writing up a little PHP class to parse my OPML file and generate a list of links to those sites ;D. You can see this fabulous list down a little on my sidebar.
