Hi guys,

```
       I am making a MP3 player. I am using FileReference object to browse and load the MP3 files in to player. I dont know how to get the path of the MP3 files. Reading some threads i came to know that Macromedia not supported the path due to security reasons.

```

But there must be some other way to get the path. should we use any other programme to make it done?

Thanks in advance…
