Hi all,i made an mp3 player that generates a report about which songs were downloaded,with the click of a button it sends the vars to php which in turn writes to a local file.

There is a problem though,whenever i click next or prev more than once and hit the download button, all of the songs that were skipped will report as downloaded.i have come far with this so i cant give up on it.

Below is the code and will be glad if someone can point out what could be wrong.as my code wil show you, i am still a begginer in as3 but i do my best.the only way i could tap into xml and utilize the vars for tracks was through this current setup of the code.  
Thanks.
