LAST FM Scrobbler Postbit_legacy

[LethalJ]

Good afternoon guys hoping someone can help me with this question I have. I'm trying to add lastFM user.getRecentTracks to the postbit_legacy on our forum but can't seem to get it working. I'm calling it from an external .php file like so

<?php


$apikey = "*API KEY is here*";
$secret = "*SECRET KEY is here*";
$token = $_REQUEST['token'];
$artist = $_GET['artist'];
$track = $_GET['track'];
$key = $_COOKIE["userkey"]; // check if we have a session key saved in the cookies
if ($token == "")
{
echo "<a href = \"http://www.last.fm/api/auth/?api_key="*API KEY*">Authenticate</a>";
}
else
{
if ($key == "") // if there's no session key in the cookies, generate one and save it
{
$apisig = md5("api_key".$apikey."method"."auth.getSession"."token".$token.$secret);
$data = file_get_contents("http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/2.0/?method=auth.getSession&api_key=$apikey&token=$token&api_sig=$apisig&format=json");
$data = json_decode($data,true);
$name = $data['session']['name'];
$key = $data['session']['key'];
setcookie("userkey", $key, time()+3600);
}
$timestamp = date("U");
$apiSig = md5("api_key".$apikey."artist[0]".$artist."methodtrack.scrobblesk".$key."timestamp[0]".$timestamp."track[0]".$track.$secret);
$postvars = "method=track.scrobble&api_key=$apikey&artist[0]=$artist&sk=$key&track[0]=$track&timestamp[0]=$timestamp&format=json&api_sig=$apiSig";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/2.0/");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postvars);
$data = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
}
?>


I tested it on one skin and it seemed to work but then suddenly stopped


I've called the the PHP file on the skin by doing the following

<div align="center"><vb:if condition="$post['field55']">
<div class="eti_postbit"><iframe src="http://ourwebsitename/LASTFM/scrob.php?name={vb:raw post.field55}" style="border: none; width: 198px; height: 44px;margin-left: -5px;"></iframe></div>
</vb:if></div>


Is there a better way of doing this. Any help is appreciated

We'll need some more information. Why is it not working? What error are you receiving on the page?

Thanks for replying Dave, appreciate it.

It was working when I fist added it and then it just stopped showing in the postbit_legacy.
I then tried it in another skin and "Authenticate" (non clickable) came up on all users postbit. I'm just wondering if there is a more effective method of adding the scrobble or how would I edit the code to achieve this.
