Nikolay,

One question I have about Track Info SDK that is not completely clear to me....  Since a track info page is an HTML file, can I use scripts, DHTML, and the MJAutomation interface within a track-info HTML page.?

Assuming the answer is Yes, can I make a track info PIP within Hairstyle or within the "normal" full-screen view?

Thanks!
Soundman

This is great, nice to see it being extended
but...
you knew there would be a but  

It'd be even nicer to be able to queries as well
Something along the lines of

TrackInfo_Has(Lyrics)
inserting 0 or 1 into the generated html (or True/False)

This would simplify decision making in javascript,
eg automatically swapping to a lyrics page if it has them etc

What do you think  ?

[Nikolay]

TrackInfo_Has(Lyrics)
inserting 0 or 1 into the generated html (or True/False)

New Track Info plug-in in the new build will have the ability to query if a field is empty or not. (look for TrackInfo_IsEmpty)

Oops, spoke too soon
We have a teeny problem here

Javascript is case sensitive  
Could you change it to lowercase true and false please

We can work around it with string comparisons, but plain boolean would just be 'nicer'
