As an interim, would it be possible to just hand over the full karaoke
content in a hash through TT, I could then make an ajax request to that
and parse it myself.
HOW do you get the data directly from lyrdb? Can I get hold of the url
from the plugin or how do you do this?

Well... It will certainly work with Safari (or any other webkit
browser) and probably with Firefox, however, iPeng is pretty much
optimized for iPhone so I removed most of the support for IE. Had to
trade load (and execution) time on iPhone against browser
compatibility...

To make it work for other SKINS will be difficult, I use my own class
model on NowPlaying that will probably not be compatible with what
Michael is using on the Default skin let alone the other skins. The
problem is I will have to hook into the regular scheduling to
synchronize with the playback.

Also, the new Default skin is using Ext2 while I use Prototype as a
library...

But I could try to make it as generic as possible so that it would at
least be easy to port...

BTW, did you get the current solution to work?
