Display number of users in channel on EXISTING webpage

[Elrahc]

Hello,

I'm trying to get an idea of what to do to have the number of users in the channel be displayed in brackets behind a link to the chat toom on our website. See here for the link in the banner.

Now, what I think might work is to have a small iframe behind the link Alventyr Chat and then have it read a simple file that the eggdrop writes and uploads to my web host (I'm running the eggdrop from my machine at home, btw). So the iframe would load a simple html file, thus displaying the number of users written in it, then refresh itself every 30 seconds.

Does anyone here have any advice on how to proceed, or can someone point me in the right direction if something similar has been done before?

Thank you,

put this in your config:

Code: Select all

bind time - * {set f [open foo w]; puts $f [llength [chanlist #chan]]; close $f;#}

every minute it will save the number of users on #chan in a file called foo
