Need help inserting "Now Playing" to html page.

tazman998 · 14th October 2005, 11:55

Hi all,

I've been looking for 2 days now to figure out how to show 1 single "now playing" line on a webpage.

to be absolutely clear of what i mean:

i want this (and nothing more) in my website:

Now playing: [songtitle]

I've been looking around, but i just can't find it.
i have no idea how to add it to an html (or php) file and even where to place that html (or php) file !

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

TIA,

Taz

P.S. running apache webserver on the same system as the shoutcast, but that shouldn't be a problem to the functionality of the shoutcast server !

thnx !
found one that did the trick !

one more question...
Is there a way to show the next song in line ?

Example:

Now playing: [songtitle]
Next song: [songtitle]

TIA !

yes but its aganst shoutcast's terms, doing so could get your station banned, i wouldnt attempt it

wonder why it's against their terms.
i mean... might be nice to let people know wich song will follow !

Anyway... you've been a great help already !
Thanks !
