A working demo of the player would have been nice, but figured it out... http://www.kissthat.com/img/flash/pl...=1&initVol=100
I assume you are just using the third party player and created the playlist.

The player isn't something you can just change or manipulate through the embed tags.

I suppose you could possibly create multiple playlists and use that.

Use PHP to generate a random playlist.

Code:

That is your xml playlist as linked to by the flash player.

All you need to do is dynamically use PHP to output a random playlist.

Note that you will need PHP installed on your server for this to work. If not, ASP might as well, but I'd recommend PHP.

1. create a new file, call it "playlist.php" and replace in the embed tag above the playList=... with the new (full) url for this page.

2. In that page, store the songs in an array. Then randomize them, then output that list as xml like above.

Here's the PHP code for that--

PHP Code:

---

<?php
//setup random playlist

//Do not edit next line:
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><songs>';

//Insert songs for playlist here:
$songs = array (
   1 => array('http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/408/Movie%20Quotes%20-%20Scarface%20%20-%20Make%20The%20Money%2C%20Get%20The%20Power%2C%20Ge.mp3', 'Scarface quote'),
   2 => array('http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/408/Three%20Six%20Mafia%20-%2010%20-%20The%20Most%20Known%20Unknowns%20-%20Half%20On%20A%20Sack.mp3', 'Half on a sack')
// N => array('URL', 'TITLE'),
//Repeat for each.
//Add one to the number for the key (1, 2, N...)
//Input the URL and TITLE for each
//Note that there MUST be a comma after each new entry
//EXCEPT the last one
);

//Do not edit below
shuffle($songs);
foreach ($songs as $song) {
   echo '<song path="'.$song[1].'" title="'.$song[2].'" />';
}
echo '</songs>';
?>

That should do it.

The above code is untested, but I'm confident it should work.

Ask if you have questions.

Thanx for the quick response I'll try this out but sry I did'nt give an example I could have just game my site www.myspace.com/lilg420 its on the left but you said u done figured it out so its cool, thanx again

Ah, ok.

Well, myspace is a problem.

It should work fine, but you will need another server for the playlist.php file that can handle PHP. Myspace certainly will not.
