HTML Jukebox?

How does one go about adding a Jukebox that rotates through a few songs into an HTML page that will work on a variety of browsers?


Just curious...

There are several MP3 jukeboxes available on the web. They're usually written in Adobe Flash, javascript, or a combination of the two. Once the player is installed on your site, you would create a playlist and call the MP3 player from an HTML <object> tag with the path to the playlist as a parameter.

Here's the jukebox we use at Songcrafters:

There are several others available. I like this one because it's very customisable.

Where did you want to put this player? Are you building a site in HTML?

Sites like Soundclick, alonetone, Reverbnation, etc. generally have their own jukeboxes for you to use. And they don't usually let you edit the HTML of your page.

Yes I want to create my own website with a jukebox on the main page, and have the alonetones and soundclicks link to it.

I'm considering this for my own music but also for the Picasso project.
