</body>Rendering multiple banners with one slot ID
You can render multiple banners using the same slot ID and dimensions by setting up
a banner context. This is useful when you want to run an auction with multiple results.
To do that you have to pass the attribute context="true" to the topsort-banner and
use topsort-banner-slot as children elements.
<topsort-banner context="true" width="600" height="400" id="<your slot id>">
<topsort-banner-slot rank="1"></topsort-banner-slot>
<topsort-banner-slot rank="2"></topsort-banner-slot>
<topsort-banner-slot rank="3"></topsort-banner-slot>
</topsort-banner-context>Banner Attributes

The various states are loading, ready, error, and nowinners.
document.querySelector('#my-slot-id').addEventListener('statechange', (event) => {
console.log(event.detail); // { status: 'ready', banner: { ... } }

cd banners.js
pnpm install
pnpm run devRemember to add window.TS.token and modify the slot-id attribute with your
own values that you can find at Topsort.
