Integration On Another Website

Help Radio Rivendell!

Hello, I am creating a website for an Universe of Heroic-Fantasy, with books and some others goodies. And I would like to integrate a button to open the webplayer of Radio Rivendell directly from my website. It is a way of advertising and the possibilities for my visitors to have related music during their visit. Is it possible? If yes, how? Thanks! Yelm

It is possible. First thing is Elrond's approval, based on previous similar topic, he will say 'yes', because in RR webplayer both Radio Rivendell and songs titles are shown. I'm not even sure if You need Elrond's agreement, as you basically link to his page, but he will agree anyway . As for how technically do this, that should be very easy. If Elrond won't give You HTML (javascript) code, then I'll help.

Yes, this is very possible!

Just grabbing our streaming code to play the radio without using our "player popup" is not okay, but popping up our player as it does now is perfectly fine

Remember that the code and URLs may change at any time

This is the link where it is: http://www.radiorivendell.com/lib/themes/rivendell2011/_functionality/webplayer.php

This is the javascript I use to pop up a player with the same size as we are using:

window.open('http://www.radiorivendell.com/lib/themes/rivendell2011/_functionality/webplayer.php','rivendell_player','left=40,top=40,width=552,height=315,menubar=false,directories=false,toolbar=false,resizable=false,scrollbars=false,status=false,location=false');

Hello all, Thank you a lot, Elrond, for your answer and authorization. Of course, I will let a word in the credits page for thanking you, and make some advertising for your (wonderful) website. I am not sure that without your music stream as an inspiration, I would finish my book and the related project! The only (but biggest) problem is that the website is only in French at the moment, I am waiting for a translation of the book (the main aspect of the project) to translate the website. Anyway, as soon it will be finished (I hope in max. two weeks) I will send you the URL (and post it here). For the moment I will see how to integrate the player And I will come back very quickly!!!

Always in French, but you can already see the integration of the button on http://www.tetrasomia.com.

I hope that I will have quickly the possibility to translate all the website in English soon.

Elrond, do not hesitate to tell me if there is any problem!

I see that when you click the button, browser shows "object Window". It is so, because browser navigates to href attribute, and then - as you can type javascript in url bar as well, it evaluates and new window opens. What you want is to use onclick attribute. (1)

and if you want to keep href attribute for link's default functionality ( finger cursor, colored image borderline / text underline ), then add a dummy url - href="#": (2)

(1) (2) codes

That looks fine. Perhaps I should create real buttons for this and make the code available somewhere. Perhaps also make a page where neat codes can be grabbed

Thanks a lot Etherlord! I took the second version because with the anchor #, when you click on it, you are sent to the beginning of the page. Elrond, it could be a good idea to have a small section in the menu called "Banners" with some codes, because to find it, I was in obligation to search through all the forum to get some pictures and links Anyway, I will add another reference to Rivendell in my future "Links" section.

That's true...

We need the banners to be found easily...

Indeed we do! Where do we put it? The menu seems a little to odd. Do we need to add a completely new section perhaps?

I thought about it. There is a "HELP" button on horizontal bar, but looks there should also be a "HELP US" button with donations and banners and other ways to help RR? Maybe "CONTRIBUTE" or something like this.

Hmm, I don't want to decrease number of donations...

Hmmm...

Hmmmmm.....

I need to drink ether...

Maybe Leave DONATE, but as you have some more space, put a CONTRIBUTE between SHOP and HELP, then move HELP more right, to be close to search field. If you run out of space, you can always move FORUMS to COMMUNITY. You can change SHOP to BRANDING and put there banners.

I'm not sure that changing Donate to Contribute will decrease the number of donations. But anyway, even if you don't change the name, you could put a submenu called "Link on your site" and put all information, banners, code into this section. In a way, you donate some "reputation", no?

Yea, I think Donate and Contribute could share same things. Would it look that bad?

They can sure use the same menu item. Adding to a drop down list is done automatically anyways, so it's not hard at all

Hello everyone! Sorry if i bother you with this message, but it's quite similar to my request... I'm writing a blog related with medieval fantasy in english and spanish... and I've found this amazing radio. It'd be my pleasure if i could share this website on my blog. Is there any choice for it? I wanted to add a gadget with your radio on blogger, but i needed an IP number for this. Do you have any problem with this petition? Please let me know if there is any possibility... Thanks in advance!
