## What's included

- flashmp3player.html - demo use of the player with comments;
- default.xml - customizable settings;
- flashmp3player.swf - compiled Flash application;
- flashmp3player.php - script that scans folder for mp3-files and reads ID3 tags;
- swfobject.js - script that detects Flash.

## Installation tips

### Step 1

Copy all files to your webserver and try running flashmp3player.html. You should be able to listen demo songs. If it works, then move to the next step.
Note: Your server should support PHP for this script to work.

### Step 2

You need to embed player into your webpages. You can copy and paste code from flashmp3player.html or from here.
Note: You can change the location of files in the following code. The path can be relative or absolute (except for mp3 folder, which should always be relative to php script).
Add this to the head of your webpage:
`<!-- Location of javascript. -->
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js" ></script>`
Add this to the body of your webpage, where you want player to appear:
`<!-- Div that contains player. -->
<div id="player">
<h1>No flash player!</h1>
<p>It looks like you don't have flash player installed. <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" >Click here</a> to go to Macromedia download page.</p>
</div>
<!-- Script that embeds player. -->
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("flashmp3player.swf", "player", "290", "247", "9"); // Location of swf file. You can change player width and height here (using pixels or percents).
so.addParam("quality","high");
so.addVariable("content_path","mp3"); // Location of a folder with mp3 files (relative to php script).
so.addVariable("color_path","default.xml"); // Location of xml file with color settings.
so.addVariable("script_path","flashmp3player.php"); // Location of php script.
so.write("player");
</script>`
Note: You can change player width and height (using pixels or percents).
Add this somewhere in the body of your webpage:
`<!--
Please place this link anywhere on the page that uses Flash MP3 Player.
You can style it anyway you want, but do not change or delete it.
Read the license! Thanks. :-)
