Hi everyone,

I created a website for my Sky LS and have a series of pages that relate to the gods in sky. In each page i list the possible drops from each god, a pic ripped from the wiki, and a link under the pic that takes you to the relevant FFXIAH page.

What id like to do is show an active price for each money drop next to each item so theres no need to open FFXIAH through the link if made.

Is this possible? is it legitimate? if the answer to both is yes, does anyone know how to do it?

I dont have any web languages under my belt, the website i made was done using a simple user interface, so any help would be greatly appreciated ^_^.

thanks in advance

So you want to rip information from ffxiah and not actually link to the site you are getting the information from...

Possible? Yes.
Legitimate? I don't think so.

I'm pretty sure the owners of ffxiah want people to come to their site for their ads to pay for their servers scraping their information from ffxi.

Here is some quick code to do something close to what you are asking, while staying within the bounds of what FFXIAH already offers (just replace the () with <>):

(html)
(head)
(title)Sky Money Drops(/title)
(/head)
(body)

(table)
(tr)
(td)Kirin(/td)
(/tr)
(tr)
(td)(a href="http://www.ffxiah.com/item.php?id=658&sid=12")(img src="http://kingbehemoth.com/icon/658.png" alt ="Damascus Ingot" Border=0)(/a)(/td)
(td)(a href="http://www.ffxiah.com/item.php?id=747&sid=12")(img src="http://kingbehemoth.com/icon/747.png" alt ="Orichalum Ingot" Border=0)(/a)(/td)
(td)(a href="http://www.ffxiah.com/item.php?id=831&sid=12")(img src="http://kingbehemoth.com/icon/831.png" alt ="Shining Cloth" Border=0)(/a)(/td)
(td)(a href="http://www.ffxiah.com/item.php?id=4818&sid=12")(img src="http://kingbehemoth.com/icon/4818.png" alt ="Scroll of Quake" Border=0)(/a)(/td)
(td)(a href="http://www.ffxiah.com/item.php?id=4748&sid=12")(img src="http://kingbehemoth.com/icon/4748.png" alt ="Scroll of Raise III" Border=0)(/a)(/td)
(/tr)
(/table)
(script src="http://www.ffxiah.com/js/ffxiahify.js" type="text/javascript")(/script)
(/body)
(/html)

That's actually a pretty good solution. I forgot about that ffxiahify.js

Just out of curiosity, what does ffxiahify.js do for the web page?

Wow that is awesome thank you!
ive modified the code a little to link the tooltips to the .jpg's from wiki item headers and it works a charm!

I could never have done this without your help, if u wanna see your handywork webjester, i have a link on here on my profile comments window. Thanks again ^_^

Btw, if ffxiah do get upset about it, im more than happy to add a link to their main page on my site, i wouldnt wanna be getting into trouble ^_^

You're welcome, glad my example helped. Credit is due to the FFXIAH team, since ultimately, its their script. ^^
