Hello all,

I have been baffled for quite some time and in need of some guru assistance.

I am trying to add a live stream to the forum. Basically when a visitor comes to the forum they would automatically hear the stream playing.

I have been trying to use either Fox Sports, CBS Sports or ESPN Radio.

From my feeble and I say feeble because all attempts by me have failed, I should simply be able to embed a player and use the stream link and add it into the coding to have it work. Sounds simple enough but if so I wouldn't be here looking for help.

This is coding I have attempted to use amongst countless others:

<embed src="http://radio.securenetsystems.net/v5/WUBRAM" type="application/x-mplayer2"

width="220" height="50" autostart="1" align="center" border="0"

transparentatstart="0" animationatstart="1" showcontrols="true"

showaudiocontrols="1" showpositioncontrols="0" showtracker="0"

autosize="0" showstatusbar="1" displaysize="false" />

</embed>

Note that the source is a link to CBS Sports Radio.

When I put the code in the HTML Includes area it pops up in the forum as just a solid gray box.

At this point, I don't know if it's possible to do what I want done or perhaps I am just way off on the embedding info I found on the net.

Please note, I didn't create the embed coding, don't know a thing about coding and pretty much am still a total dumbass when it comes to the tech talk. So please dumb it down for me if you reply and help out.

You can PM me or e-mail me directly. Any and all help much appreciated.

Thanks again,
