If you type (for example) "Mozart" in the search box, you should see all the mp3 files with Mozart in them, including files in directories that contain the word "Mozart". This means (for example) if you have a playlist file in one of those directories then you can sort of see what is in that playlist...... umm.... not really explaining myself properly but you'll see once you give it a try. This is separate from the playlists in your playlist directory, though. Personally I use http://www.splitbrain.org/index.php?x=.%2FProgramming%2FPerl%2FSimPlEdi to view and edit my playlists via a web interface. I've thought about "migrating" it to misterhouse, but it's a bit cramped on the 640*480 3Com Audries so I haven't really bothered..... Cheers Richard > Sorry, that interface is not yet that fancy.

Brad, I wonder if you realise that playlists are just text files that can be opened and edited in eg Notepad. So on your main mh machine they can be examined from the file browser. However I assume you are wanting to examine them remotely. So create a file mh/web/Music/playlists and make a copy of your playlists there, then change their extensions from .m3u to .txt These are not the master playlists and will not play. Then create a simple html page called "playlist_selector.html" as follows and store in eg mh/web/ia5/entertain/ for consistency. ...... <body> <P>Playlists</P> <P><A href="../../../../../Music/playlists/kylie1.txt">Kylie1</A></P> <P><A href="../../../../../Music/playlists/madonna.txt">Madonna</A></P> </body> ...... Finally point to this html from your own web pages which you access via the MyMH button, or if you havn't got this far yet just put this in your private ini: web_href_MyMH=/ia5/entertain/playlist_selector.html When you click on the links on this page the browser will just display the list. I'm not sure about all those ../ in the example above but my html editor stuck them in it seems to work. I think one could have the lists outside mh and point to it with eg <P><A href="file:///C:/Music/playlists/dylan1.txt">Dylan</P></A> Baz > If you type (for example) "Mozart" in the search box, you should see all the > mp3 files with Mozart in them, including files in directories that contain > the word "Mozart".

Re: listing playlists from the jukebox page. My last version was a bit of a hack so ditch the 'special' web page, and the mymh link I quoted was wrong too. The following is dead easy but not 'good' mh practice yet as the lists are not in the data section but in the web directories. I need help to make the server accept data outside the web directory. I have modified the playlist display code so that the playlist name in the mh jukebox page still activates the player, but the music stave icon next to it displays the list. In /mh/web/bin/mp3_search.pl change the line my $icon = $href; to my $icon = "<a href= '../../../../../Music/playlists/ $playlist.txt' >"; That's all. Note that there is more than one file called mp3_search.pl in mh, and more than one /bin directory so get the right one. You still have to make the .txt files by hand. Next step is to generate the .txt files automatically, but I'm off on holiday so that will have to wait.
