I have adobe design premium cs5 and am developing a website in DW. I purchased a template to get me started that has an mp3 player in it, but it only alows for start and stop. I'd ike a more functional player with volume control, a progress bar. maybe even a playlist option etc.

Is this something that must be purchased or is it somewhere contained in my CS5 suite of programs?

If it needs to be purchased , Any recommended ones? My site is currently HTML 4.01 FWIW:

Is this what it is supposed to look like?

Is there a trick to getting an mp3 to play on your local computer using this?


Answered my own question. Just putting the mp3 on the web page caused the yahoo media player to find it.

Try the Yahoo Player. It is free and good for MP3, it also plays YouTube movies. The only drawback in my opinion is that it you can only two choose from two colors.

I plugged it in and think it might be working but I am gettng the following when I try to play it locally: Maybe the question should be, does the yahoo mp3 player work if flash  is already running on the pafe?

Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation: <MySite> is trying to communicate with this internet enabled location. To let this application communicate with the internet click settings.''

I then click settings and the ying.com site is already allowed. This happens each time I go to the page. I went the flash player help section and it referenced a settings pdf which took me back to the same settings panel I first visited. Still the ying site is allowed. What to do?

That is a flash question. It relates to a link insite your Flash aplication and has to do with safety. If you play a flash movie with an external link you will get this message unless you specify the source of the allowed link. Go to flash forum for this question.
