Help With Grooveshark

Hey everyone,

I am TRYING to do some cool stuff with gooveshark and my site but it is not getting along with me very well. The things I am trying to get it to do are:

1. Autoplay
2. Put playlists instead of only just one song
3 Choose between randomizing and specific order for playlists.
4. Hide widget with other picture (like maybe just a SMALL play button or music button) that could turn it off and on.

Any help with this would be appreciated. As it stands OP does not seem to like the base coding you can get for the widget from grooveshark so it has been difficult. Hopefully some of the code gurus on here can make some better sense of it.

EDIT: And I sent an email to the grooveshark support with the only code possible to post on OP and they were absolutely zero help with their response.

    Wow, those all would be cool. I have grooveshark on a couple of pages, but my players were not big fans- if you got autoplay that would be awesome. I have no solves for you, unfortunately.

    I think i can make their play button smaller with some creative HTML but i have not tried it yet. Can you send me the grooveshark link you are using and ill try this weekend. I have a new game i am developing, but i dont think we will ever play it, so im in the middle of a coding binge. I like a challenge.

    Thanks Hurst...

    Here is the base widget available from groovehsark:

    Heavy Bune by Jeff Van Dyck on Grooveshark

    But it does not seem to work on OP. What I am using to make it work is:



    That is for just one song. There is a different widget for playlists:

    L5R Changing History Songs by Jaymes Bolton on Grooveshark


    Using the base widget and changing the value of p=0 to p=1 you can make it autoplay and I think there is a way to randomize the playlist widget but I am not a 100% sure. If I could use the original widgets so that I could play around with the settings on them and THEN hide it behind a small "play button" type of image (or any other type of image could be interesting to see what kind of images could be used to help spuce up an OP page) it would be simply AMAZING.

    Thanks in advance for ANY help you could provide and good luck.

    Im not sure about the auto play thing but i was able to kind of disguse it in the back ground. there are some serious limitations on the code but was my first try it was not bad. Anyway ill refine the code over the next could of days and then put the link up here so you can see it. Of course ill publish the code too. Im just glad work as lightened up enough i have time to do this stuff again
