Im still very new to AS, but i need some help, please. i used a tutorial to build an XMl mp3 player but the AS is set to use the player on the root of the movie. Can someone help me to change the AS so i can load it anyway i want(i.e. attachMovie(), loadMovie() ect.)

thanks

heres the script:

stop();  
playlist = new XML();  
playlist.ignoreWhite = true;  
playlist.onLoad = function(success) {  
if (success) {  
\_global.songname = [];  
\_global.songband = [];

for (var i = 0; i\<playlist.firstChild.childNodes.length; i++) {  
\_global.songname\* = playlist.firstChild.childNodes\*.attributes.name;  
\_global.songband\* = playlist.firstChild.childNodes\*.attributes.band;  
\_global.songfile\* = playlist.firstChild.childNodes\*.attributes.file;  
// trace(songname\*+" “+songfile\*+” “+songband\*);  
}
