hi there

ive decided to use the windows media plugin to stream muic from my site.
It all works nicely and im streaming 7 songs at the moment.
However i've no idea how to display a list of the songs that can be played

im currently using this code to embed windows media into a web page and then play songs from a playlist;

<object classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab# Version=5,1,52,701" type="application/x-oleobject" width="280" height="46" align="right" standby="Loading Microsoft Windows® Media Player components..." id="MediaPlayer1">
<param name="fileName" value="http://mysite.com/music/music.m3u">
<param name="animationatStart" value="true">
<param name="transparentatStart" value="true">
<param name="autoStart" value="false">
<param name="showControls" value="true">
<param name="Volume" value="-300">
<embed src="http://mysite.com/music/music.m3u" width=280 height=46 autostart=0 align="right" type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" showcontrols=1 volume=-300></embed>
</object>

What i would like to do is display the playlist, clicking a link to navigate between songs would be nice but isnt a must, and i would also like to display the filename of the song that is currently playing.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading :D
