What I would like to do is something I thought was simple but appears not to be.

I want to create a page that can show 5 rss sources on it. would love if it had titles only by date and you click one, and it slides down with the content.

I can't use aggregator because i want to be able to customize the page.

Any ideas? I tried the feedparser but this was no good at all.

Thank you

Aggregator or Feedparser? Here's why I want to know. I like the way aggregator outputs the feeds. My particular interest is in having the feed links appear in the blocks. I don't really need aggregator nodes. Feedparser doesn't appear -- unless I'm doing something wrong -- to output the items to blocks.

But Feedparser's simplepie parser is noticeably and dramatically faster than whatever aggregator uses.

So I would like to simply -- if indeed it is simple -- use the simplepie parser in the core aggregator module? Can that be done? How hard is it? Has anyone done it? Have YOU done it? Sounds like maybe you have.
