Choosing the audio file to play with Media Player

[Guest]

I would like users to be able to listen to one or more .wma files on my web
page (up to four), with each user being able to select the number and order
of play. I tried to do this by inserting multiple copies of media player on
the page, with each set to play a selected song; this worked for the first
two, but not the last two. Is there a way to do this with a single media
player? I know that simply adding each song to the playlist doesn't work,
but I've been unable to find anything that does.

Thanks!

Take a look at http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/midi-menu.html
or http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/mp3-playlist.html or
http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/random-midi.html and see if you
can adapt any of these to fit your need.

David,

Thanks for the quick response. However, I'm not sure how any of these
scripts would tie back to a Windows Media Player embedded in the web site. I
guess I'll have to learn Java to figure that out.

The scripts create the "embed" tag for you. Also, you don't really need the
player embedded to hear music.
