Icecast - Aug 2004 - how to get "now playing"

greetings!

i'd like to incorporate a "now playing" section on my
web page (links to the icecast2 server)

i'm guessing i have to get the <xsl:value-of
select="artist" /> and <xsl:value-of select="title"
/>
tags from the status.xsl file.  not sure what else
needs to be coded into the index.html file to get this
info.

can anybody point me in the right direction?

thanks,

jg

nice idea. ;)

Correct guess.
My xslt-sheet looks like this:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version = "1.0" >
<xsl:output method="text" indent="yes" />
<xsl:template match = "/icestats" >
<xsl:for-each select="source">
<xsl:if test="@mount='/test.ogg'">
<xsl:value-of select="artist" /> - <xsl:value-of
select="title" />
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

This (text/plain) page containing only one line of text is then read by an
flash-applet & included by a php-page.

You could of course place an frame/i-frame in your index.html to have the users
browser make the "lookup". Then you need to make the output method
"html" and make some nice formatting that suits your needs.

Regards

Thomas
