SteamProfile
About

SteamProfile is an Ajax-based Java-Script widget to embed the profile status of a Steam Community member into a HTML webpage.
( ..and now with my mod, into SMF Boards to..)

It uses the Steam Community XML API to read the raw data and jQuery for the transformation into HTML elements.

PHP is used as well for a server-side XML proxy to ensure fast and stable XML delivery.
See example.html for examples and instructions for proper embedding into your website, (ins steamprofile folder).

Examples:



With slider menu opened:





Steam Profile Mod for SMF will:

Integrate Steam profile script, into SMF Board

• Adds Steam Profile field to the "Forum Profile Information" page, (in SMF 2.0 "Profil Forum").
• Adds Steam Profile image-indicator and link to the "View Profile", (sumary view), page showing the status of that user.
• Adds Steam Profile image,(baner)-indicator to user details in forum posts that links to their Steam Community page.
