Html music playlist
To add a music playlist to your website you need to do 2 things:
- Create a m3u file (your music playlist file)
- Create your HTML file with your music code (this plays the music on the m3u file)
A m3u file is a file that contains a list of songs. Follow these steps to create your m3u file (i.e. your playlist file):
- Create a text file
- Add a list of the mp3 files you want on your playlist. This can be the full path to the file or a relative path. Place each mp3 file name on a new line
- Add any comments by preceeding them with a hash (#) symbol (this step is optional)
- Save the file with a .m3u extension. For example, call it music_playlist.m3u
There it is - your music playlist file!
Example m3u file:Below is an example of an m3u file:
This is my m3u file - it contains a list of songs/music/title.mp3/music/good_enough.mp3/music/bonus.mp3
Now all you need to do is add your playlist to your music code.
Step 2 - add your playlist to your music code:Place the following code within your HTML file and change the values to suit:
Example for music code look here: http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/create_music_playlist.cfmIf you've ever added music to your website, you are probably familiar with this code.
The only difference between this code and any other (non-playlist) code, is that in this code, the value of the srcattribute (i.e. your source file) is your playlist file. If you weren'tusing a playlist, this source file would simply be a single .mp3 fileor a single .wav file or similar.
