Flash mp3 xml in xml website!

[Manjinda]

hey people new to the forum hope every1 is ok..have a big problem...

i have a web template that is fully driven by xml ..

my question is that how do i insert an xml driven flash player into the xml website...

when for example i insert the source.. on the xml site it comes up like this CODING -

<main><![CDATA[<img src="media_content/remix/mp3player.swf" align="right" width="200">

(image is attatched)

what specific coding would i need to put in for the flash mp3 player to be able to read the xml playlist ?

im new to this you see..thanks for all the help and support in advance

HTML <img> tag is for images and you cannot use it for SWF. <object> (and <embed>) tag is what you need, but whether your template supports SWF or not is another matter...

hey just having a problem i understand you said i would have to insert that coding into the xml

exactly how though im new to this you see ..

i have attached an image.. would you be kind enough to write out the coding for me as i can just copy and paste over and then fiddle around with it to my own accordance.. just the simple basic code inc the height align tags?

image attached below

<object> tag for embedding SWF is like this:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="780" height="420"><param name="movie" value="myContent.swf" /><!--[if !IE]>--><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="myContent.swf" width="780" height="420"></object><!--<![endif]--></object>

Try replacing your <img> tag with this (obviously you need to set the path to the SWF correctly)

I HAVE THE SWF MP3 FILE AND XML PLAYLIST FILE IN ROOT FOLDER ... WHERE AND HOW WILL I CODE IT BECAUSE I COPIED AND PASTED THE CODE U GAVE I THEN CHANGED THE PATH BUT IT KEPT COMING UP AS INFO NULL WHEN VIEWING THE SITE..

THE XML SITE HAS A BUILT IN VIDEO PLAYER AND THERE IS A CONFIG XML WHERE YOU LINK THE VIDEOS IN THERE ..

IM SURE IF U CAN HAVE A VIDEO PLAYER WHICH READS OFF A XML PLAYLIST IT CAN BE DONE WITH MP3 ..

DO U HAVE MSN OR SOMETHING AND U CAN LOGMEIN? OR SOMETHING MAKE IT EASIER FOR URSELF AND UNDERSTAND MORE.. ?

Did it create Flash object? You can tell by right-clicking on it.
