Idea on how to fetch the room numbers of steamga.me, MSG15, CMP2015, YOWH, etc

Since all cross-domain requests are blocked you need to do some tricks. If you dont want to write a chrome plugin you have to bypass the cross-domain limitation e.g. by using the following trick: Insert an image in the DOM:

jQuery("body").append("<img src='http://example.com/room_nr_1.png' id='bla'>");

and later query it's width and height to get the room info out of it

  var roomid = jQuery("#bla").height() * jQuery("#bla").width()

Of course you would have to make multiple requests (each with a new image):

• first request the number of rooms N in the list http://example.com/nr_rooms.png
• then for IDX= 0... (N-1) you want, use a url like http://example.com/roomnr.png?index=IDX

using that technology you should be able to request at least the roomnbrs (not the names).

You can host the webserver directly on github, using https://pages.github.com/
