 I have a number of self-composed songs in mp3 format which are linked
to their individual titles with <a href... The problem with this
coding is that the songs open in a new window containing the media
player transport control. I've tried embedding, but this is not
suitable for multiple files. Ideally, I'd like visitors to have
control over the playing of the songs with their media player embedded
on the same page. I'm brainstorming here, but would there, for
example, be some way of embedding the user's default player on the
page with the list of songs beneath it; clicking on a song name would
load the song into the embedded player. Any comments or other
suggestions would be much appreciated.

A little thought tells you that this *must* be impossible, as the user's
default player might not be embeddable.
