 * I hope I’m posting this in the right place. If not please move.
 * I run a internet radio station website for a friend and am having an interesting
   issue. I have a couple widgets and a couple pages that have some jquery script
   calls in them to pull and display data from the SHOUTcast server which is located
   on a different server than the WordPress site. On the front page I have a widget
   that shows the artist and song title that is currently on air, it works fine,
   I have a menu link that goes to a page of recently played songs that also queries
   the SHOUTcast server, it will not show anything unless I hit “refresh” on the
   web browser and then it will show fine. If I exit to another page and go back
   into it once again it will not show the data until I hit refresh. Is there possibly
   a conflict with WordPress loading the jquery script multiple times? Is there 
   a better way to preload the script perhaps that will ensure all the data shows?

   the problem.

 * I removed the jQuery script call from the widgets since WordPress has it’s own
   jQuery library, I then removed the jquery.shoutcast.easy.min.js library call 
   from the widget and added it to functions.php as an wp_enqueue_script call and
   the widgets/pages still work however I still have the same issue where if I change
   to a different page the widget data won’t load unless I hit refresh. I’m completely
   stumped.

 * Ended up figuring this out after a lot of moving things around. Come to find 
   out the theme I’m using “Soundwave” has a jPlayer for my SHOUTcast stream at 
   the bottom and if you have “nonstop player” turned on it affects the other java
   scripts from working properly unless you refresh. I turned the “nonstop player”
   off and everything loads perfectly with no refreshing. Just thought I’d share
   if anyone else runs into this issue.
