I've tried looking for information on this but couldn't find anything.  I'm looking for a simple script that will let me show a live mtGox Bitcoin price ticker on my website.  I don't want to steal anyone's script, so I was wondering if there is a ticker script somewhere that I would be able to copy and use on my site.  Sorry if this has been asked before, and thanks in advance.

In that case, ignore anything that has the acronym "json" in it.

Try this one:

Haha thanks but like the original post said, I would like to be able to implement my own price ticker in a website.  I get that you have to retrieve the JSON object and decode it, I keep running into a  'get_object_vars() expects parameter 1 to be object, null given', when trying to pass the result from json_decode() to get_object_vars() so that I can actually see them.

Was just hoping someone could clarify what I'm doing wrong.

What language is that?  PHP?

Would anyone be interested in a physical bitcoin ticker.

IE a LED "sports/stock" ticker that shows the current Bitcoin price. I've been working on figuring out how to get it started.
You'd have to have the LED plugged into a USB port at all times to receive the power/info but it's not THAT hard.

Do you have any intention to go to market with something like that?  Might be a fun thing
