Xanga Dropdown Music help needed, (Yes I have tried the links) Options

[rancid821]

I was interested on putting music on my site, so I tried Darkplayer. I have all my music from Music_Galore on Xanga. I have tried all the links, they all work.

My Xanga

I copied and pasted all the right things in there... maybe its just me? I could really use some help!

I am not sure on why it's not working (if it's all of the songs not working but if it is the 5th - 12th ones not working it's because you missed out the = sign

***EDIT***
I don't know why but that code i just gave you isn't working either, all you can do is find some different codes, some ppl have been having the same problems, and it's the song URLS, they work on there own, but don't when put into the darkplayer. Sorry that i couldn't help
