I have a shoutcast server servin a local radio station. I can listen to the stream with winamp and Windows media player independently. I saved a playlist called "winmedia.asx". What i need is the play list to play in an embedded windows media player. If i point the code below to an mp3, it plays fine, but when i point it to the playlist, it don't werk. This is the first time for me doin this, so i might have it all mucked up and be heading in the completly wrong direction, but i am stuck on this one. Any Ideas?

(the code)

<OBJECT
ID=&quot;mediaPlayer&quot;
CLASSID=&quot;CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95&quot;
CODEBASE=&quot; controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701&quot;
STANDBY=&quot;Loading Microsoft Windows Media Player components...&quot;
TYPE=&quot;application/x-oleobject&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;filename&quot;
VALUE=&quot;<PARAM NAME=&quot;animationatStart&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;transparentatStart&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;autoStart&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;showControls&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
</OBJECT>
