Forum Sage Group: Forum Members Posts: 2, Visits: 19	Hi guys, First time poster, really hoping you guys might be able to help, I've trawled the forums with no luck. I've written a script for our website to display who's on air, what was previously played and what's currently playing and I've set it to update every 20 seconds: I'm pretty happy with it (apart from the random time outs due to what I think is our wonky internet), but I'm hoping to do something a little more advanced, I just haven't been able to work it out from the OCP manual. I was listening to Corby Radio a couple of days ago when I noticed that when the news cut in, the "now playing" and "Coming up" text disappeared. This would be really ideal for our sports show which has a lot of commentary or when we have an outside broadcast. Does anyone know exactly how this works or the script required? There's a cup of tea in it for anyone who can help ;D Thanks in advance Adam King Newport City Radio Adam King \| Newport City Radio \| Web Services Manager 248

The choice is Royal Mail Express or Carrier Pigeon. (I suspect carrier pigeon may be more reliable.) Thanks again! Adam King \| Newport City Radio \| Web Services Manager 210
