Your xml gives exactly the same result as mine. I've attached mine anyway

I also downloaded iSquonk.zip again but same result.

I just installed Firefox and it worked fine, except for the sorting problem. Still no go for IE.

The problem in the sample you have posted is in the year field; normally I use the release date of the album even if it is a compilation like in your sample.

So, in the original mte file you only need to remove the $loop(%year%) (with the corresponding $loopend) to obtain the result you want.

To fix the sort keep the $loop(%_filename_ext%) in the inner loop because your file names have the trailing 0 in the track number, so the resulting sort will be correct.

For the transparency problem you may change the .active-column-0 and .active-column-1 styles in iSquonk.htm and/or iSquonk_ie.htm. Anyway transparency is not handled very well in IE.

Yes, this helps in IE if you get rid of the threedlightshadow

So at the moment it works nicley in Firefox except the weird sorting problem is still there. It reports first time in the correct order but clicking on the track heading disturbs the order and can only be retrieved by clicking on the album title again. I don't see this in your xml and can't find what is different about mine - to me it looks exactly the same.

Still can't get the artist lists and album lists to display at all in IE.

Thanks for your help...

This is some good stuff you've created here. I love having instant access to artist, and album information from those 3 sites (amg, ad, mb). Some questions:

  1. How do I get the album art working? I have all my album art as linked image files in the album folder, and only few of them are actually named cover.jpg.

  2. Can you add more lyric searches? The one you use now, isn't very smart.

26

You may change the name you use for the cover image file, but you have to use the same convention for all of your directories.
To change the name:

  1. open the file _css/isquonk_album.xsl and/or _css/isquonk_album_ie.xsl with a text editor
  2. at line 21 replace the text cover.jpg with the name you prefer or change it to <xsl:value-of select="title" />.jpg, if your cover image files have the Album Title as name

To change the lyrics search change the link at line 34 in _css/iSquonk_track.xsl; anyway if you have some other links I may use them in future updates...
