stream external mp3

[cybercampbell]

Hi all

I'm a bit lost here

I need to stream an mp3 with a single toggle button Play/Stop and a volume slider.....this already hurts.....this is where I get even more lost.....

I need to locate the mp3 from a query string eg:

stream.swf?username=cybercampbell&item_name=test.mp3

and now it get even more tricky (for me anyway)

I now need to grab the mp3 from the correct url/directory by extracting the following info from the query string...this is where the file will be:

http://www.mydomain.com/users/c/cy/cybercampbell/av/test.mp3

so as you can see i've used the username to get there using this method:

u/us/username
b/bo/bob
s/sa/sarah

all taken from username

/users/ and /av/ will always be the same

any ideas?

Cheers

OK...this is as far as I got...so I'm hopeing for a little (or maybe alot) advise:

I've attached the .fla (zipped)

I can get the mp3 the play when loaded but still having trouble with the play stop button and I'm hopeing to get some help with adding a volume slider...I've found heaps of examples out there but there are all to advanced for waht I need and I try to take out the other/extra stuff and seem to mess everthing up.

Can anyone help out on this:

Cheers
