Hello Kyle,
If you want that the listener always receive audio from your *Web site*,
whether or not your *Icecast server* is running, you can include an
onclick event on your stream url, so, if your *Icecast server* is not
running, a song hosted in your *Web server* will be played:
document.getElementById('idYourStreamUrlButton').onclick=function(){if(icecastIsRunning){playYourIcecast}else{playYourSong}}
