A play list as we all know, is a application which plays tracks one after the other, if you want to add a play list to you web page follow these steps,
If you are testing this code in firefox, you will need an additional plugin, it works well in IE.

Step 1 - Create m3u File

Create a m3u file with the list of songs you want to play in your web page

1. Open a text file
2. Add a list of the mp3 files you want on your playlist. This can be the full path to the file or a relative path
3. Place every mp3 in a new line
4. Save the file with .m3u extension example - playlist.m3u
5. If you want to add any comments begin with a hash (#) symbol

An example text file

# This is my m3u file - it contains a list of songs
F:\music\jaiho.mp3
F:\music\mustafa.mp3
F:\music\guzarish.mp3

Step 2 - Adding to the web page

<html>
<head>

<title> Play List</title>
</head>

<body>

<embed name="music_playlist"
src="list.m3u"
width="300"
height="90"
loop="false"
hidden="false"
autostart="true">
</embed>
</body>

</html>

Try it out Smile
