One of the great things about Who's There is the ability to publish your current events. All the examples below provide links to events specially marked as published and only include events that are still to happen, with old events automatically removed - You site is always up to date.

What ever technology you use for your website, Who's There will integrate with ease thanks to its use of XML data feeds, prebuilt JavaScript array variables and prebuilt and customisable web pages.

What do you need?

Pre-built events page

Every group gets there own pre-built events page, choose a username when you create your group and find your page at http://www.whosthere.co.uk/username/

Configure the page so it looks like the rest of your website, have a look at the Packington and Phosphorus pages to see how they can be fitted into an existing design.

Configure your page using simple font and colour options, by editing the CSS or by loading in replacement header and footer sections to the page, the more knowledge you have the more control you'll find.

Search Google for examples of setting up your CSS and HTML.

XML Data Feed

Does your website use ASP, PHP or even Flash, no problem. Who's There provides an XML data feed for your events so that any modern language can pick up the data and format it for your site in what ever way you choose.

Example will appear here when they are ready, but in the meantime, look up XML and your preferred technology on Google and see what you can create - send me examples to share with other members.

Your XML data feed can be found at http://www.whosthere.co.uk/username/xml/

Please use provide a link back to Who's There when you use the XML feed, something along the lines of "Powered by Who's There".

Pre-loaded JavaScript

What to parse your XML into JavaScript, no need, Who's There provides a pre-loaded JavaScript array. Simply add a link to the script file to expose an array variable called wtEvents.

Have a look at the code used for the blog code below for an example of how you might use this in on your website.

MySpace and other blogging sites

You can add a simple Who's There box to any blog site, simply copy the code provided from the "Public Presence" section of your group settings and paste it into your blog, it will keep up to date and will let everyone know what's happening.

You can of course create your own JavaScript functions and completely change the look of it, or just adjusts the fonts, colours and size to your liking. Experiment and see what happens!
