isn't this gadget just a snippet of code that displays the online list to the user? Why does it need a server?

Bingo,
Ajax doesnt support cross domain scripting, which leaves trying to grab the data "client side" dead in the water atm, I have discussed possible alternatives with people, bit since they are all server orientated, against a script which is pure client, they dont seem to work. Since the apps are generally built this way, I have no alternative but to build a php script to "get" the online list serverside and "parse" it, ready for my apps to read from.
