    Brian - 2008-01-01

    This is a great tool and I'm so glad something like this exists.  Thank you!

    Anyway, the ID3 tag part isn't working for me.  I haven't tried any customization yet, so all I've done is uploaded the "music" folder (and everything else in it) to my server with all the code unchanged.  I've added my music files, and the player works perfectly, but none of the ID3 info is coming through, so the song titles only show as the filenames.  This is not a real big deal, because my filenames are OK, but I love the idea of the ID3 stuff working.  I've tried lots of different mp3s, all with good ID3 data, and I've even tried uploading the package to different servers (2 different web hosting companies).  My question is, are there any common reasons for failure or troubleshooting suggestions for the getID3 stuff?  Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

      Hey Brian, there was a question about this in another thread:

      http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1694763&forum_id=661943

      Does this help?

      Usually there are errors of some kind if the getid3 library cannot be accessed at all.  If you are getting filenames, then the script is working.  Read through the 'rules' part of the above thread.
