Flash - Loading xml into listbox help! Mp3 player...

[philio16]

hi guys,

Ive been making an mp3 player in flash which works no problem, i have a dynamic text field reading from the xml file which displays the current song playing. I achieved this from following a tutorial....now however I've been trying to add a playlist which is done in a listbox reading from the same xml file.

This works, however what I cannot get to work is if I click on a song in the listbox, it won't start to play that song...I think it is because I have created 2 different arrays for the mp3 player itself and the playlist, can anyone take a look through my code and see where I am going wrong?

Cheers!

//Setup sound object
var s:Sound = new Sound();
s.onSoundComplete = playSong;

//Position of music
