i've been having trouble, and i'm not really an experienced HTMLer so if someone could help me that would be great.

ok i try opening this object(i think this is where the problem is but i'm probably wrong):
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="mp3player.swf?playlist=alternate.xml"
width="280" height="280" wmode="transparent">
<param name="movie" value="mp3player.swf?playlist=alternate.xml" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
and problems so far? well here's where i get confused.

i am trying to use this object to upload an xml. first of all is this possible? if not then i would assume that i would hae to upload it to a file hosting site and then use the url. so far is this correct? and if this is correct, where would i insert the url?

ok here is the xml, tell me if something's wrong:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <player showDisplay="yes" showPlaylist="yes" autoStart="yes">
<song path="mp3/Animals.mp3" title="Animals - House Of The Rising Sun" />
<song path="mp3/DepecheMode.mp3" title="Depeche Mode - All I Ever Wanted" />
<song path="mp3/TheKillers.mp3" title="The Killers - Mr Brightside" />
<song path="mp3/Coldplay.mp3" title="Coldplay - Speed Of Sound" />
<song path="mp3/Radiohead.mp3" title="Radiohead - Paranoid Android" />
<song path="mp3/GMS.mp3" title="GMS - Juice" />
<song path="mp3/Keane.mp3" title="Keane - Somewhere Only We Know" />
<song path="mp3/RollingStones.mp3" title="Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter" />
<song path="mp3/Placebo.mp3" title="Placebo - The Bitter End" />
</player>

this xml works if i open it through the progam because it incorporates both the xml and the correct files, but i don't see how it would work as an external program to use in something like myspace. if anyone can help, please?
