title: Use PHP to List Minecraft Player Usernames on a Server
body: <p>I have been searching around for a solution to listing the usernames of players that are currently online on a Minecraft server. My client doesn't want to use Plugins so this is sightly more tricky.</p>
  
  <p>I have see DinnerBone use Python on his <a href="http://dinnerbone.com/minecraft/tools/status/" rel="nofollow">website</a> to list online players with their usernames. I was wondering if this is possible to do and if not, does anyone know how to achieve this?</p>
