Music: Playlist Help Options

[phuckernim]

i took this from the scripts section of the xanga scripts. my problem is that whenever i enter my webpage from the actual link (and not my private xanga link), the song title displayed isn't the song that is playing but is the song title of a song two titles below. or sometimes the song displayed isn't remotely close to the real song. in other words. the song displayed isn't what is actually playing.

another question i have is. is there a way to change color of the drop down button and scrollbar of the playlist?

a last question i have is, i know that my playlist plays a random song whenever someone enters my page or refreshes it or what not, but is there a way to make the songs random on my playlist in one visit (ie. i've been staring at someones xanga reading a post. not clicking anything) without having to change the song manually?

here's MY XANGA if you need to look at it

if anything isn't clear please tell me so i can explain it better. thanks in advance ^___^

.xX. EDIT .Xx.: yeah. i just checked my xanga page again. i just noticed that only sometimes the whole switching of the song titles happens. do you think it's because i have too many songS? i have a little over 100. not sure if the song title switch will happen when you visit my page. but it does happen occasiaonly. at least to me O_O.

ok first of all check your placement of your song titles and urls to check if they align forst of all ...as for changing the color of the buttons theres a script somewhere in her but you cant change the scrollbar as far as i know and i dont think that the song can change automatically as soon as one s done hope this answers everything

[phuckernim]

my songs are aligned. i can click each song and when i press play the correct song plays. it's only sometimes when i go onto my xanga that the actual song playing is not the song being displayed on the playlist. i guess it's just my computer or something? i don't know...

first of all you have the same name as me! second, did you place the song links at the same number as the song title?

edit:// or, you can try out the music drop down jukebox, works like the others, and i use this one alot

[phuckernim]

hehe. didn't realized we had the same name O_O. donna is the awesomest name ever you know. haha. but yeah. the link you gave me is the music playlist that i use now. it's not the jukebox -_-;. but the actual jukebox playlist this looks kind of ugly -__-;. my song links are the same as the song number. when i see the song playing and notice the wrong song name. i can click play and the song displayed will play. i don't know. i guess my playlist is just stupid. i don't think people'll care that much about the right song being played >__<. thanks for all your guys' help anyways.
