iTunes - widget help needed for jws.com

Now that The Grafting is up and running on iTunes, I'd like to put a widget of some sort on John's site that will be able to link to his songs for purchase. NOT to listen to them, but to BUY them.

Is anyone familiar with how to do this, or what types of widgets work for this purpose?

I'm not into iTunes that much except to use it to listen to music... and since Trodland is the webmaster (and he's not much into iTunes, as far as I know), we need some help!

You can start by going here:
http://ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.ne ... sLinkMaker

This is a link maker to iTunes by Apple.

Follow the steps.
Enter the country, artist (John Schlitt) and then media type (Music).

What you will get is a list of files John is associated with on iTunes (no Petra!?!). There is an arrow beside each track, album or artist name.
Click on the arrow beside the Grafting and an HTML link will be generated for you and an iTunes graphic is include in the code.

If you want Trodland to create a specific button for John than apply just the link code. <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/only-m ... &uo=6"></a>

Great! thanks so much.

I don't want individual song widgets - just The Grafting album as a whole.

We'll work on it!
