Refreshing "Now Playing" on my webpage

[Gavin]

It may be worth noting that a new flash player will be introduced soon and that has the song title embedded.

Thanks everybody for your input on this Ive finally got it working on a new site im working on using the solution of iframe... as instructed by z neumann.. What a performance though eh..

Great news there Gavin about the new flash player with song title embedded

[Orions_Radio]

now, I want to setup a list that includes the five previous songs with two buttons per song: one for Lyrics (opening in a new tab) and one for Buy (opening in a new tab).

If you are using SAM Broadcaster ... why aren't you just using the samPHPweb or samHTMweb given by the program ... thats what I use .. (with major modifications) .. the basic one will give you a list of songs ... you would have to modify code to get lyrics ... I can give you the code I used to show the lyrics in an iframe on my page (using samPHPweb version.... the code wont work with the samHTMweb version) I basically used bits and pieces of the code from the original php to make the site more the way I wanted it to be.


my version of sam is v.4 so its newer than your v.2 maybe the sites arent available .. i can zip the original version of the site and attach it if you would like.

*Note* the HTML version requires SAMs to generate the output so if its not available in V.2 ... you may need to upgrade or use the php version (php generates through the mysql database).


Here is what the original html page would look like: http://ows.dontexist.com/radio/samHTMweb/
Here is what the original PHP page would look like: http://ows.dontexist.com/radio/samPHPweb/
Here is what the page looks like with my mods(center frame only) http://ows.dontexist.com/radio/

Let me know if you need the original web files
