Does anyone know of a code that would stream .pls (Shoutcast radio files) on a website? As in embedded .pls files? I know <embed> but it doesn't work for .pls files...
Edit: Ignore the bold tags in the title. For some reason typing .pls turns into .please without them.

Shoutcast files don't stream without a player for them. The players for shoutcast (winamp) do not offer a web-plugin that embeds them to pages.
The closest you can come is with the object tag, which will open the player if the player is already associated with that file type.

Actually, .pls also plays in Quicktime and RealPlayer, and both have web-plugins.

Um, I tried that, but it didn't quite work... It just showed some quicktime symbol and never loaded the stream.
