The problem:

I finally got the playerMultipleList.swf to appear on the webpage, and I  
was really excited even tho the playlist didn’t show up. Loading  
playlist flashes by, then just says undefined (please see screen shot in  
attachment).

I noticed in my development.log the following, but am at a loss as to  
how to do the mapping if that’s the issue:  
ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches “/Home/playlist.xml”  
with {:method=\>:get}):

Details:  
The tracks don’t appear (get undefined where a track should be) even  
though I used the same pathing convention to point to public/Sounds  
(should evaluate to  
#{RAILS\_ROOT}/public/Sounds just as the swf path evaluated to  
#{RAILS\_ROOT}/public/swf and found the player.

At first I thought this problem would be a piece of cake, but now after  
trying the same convention I just mentioned, as well as the relative  
path, and absolute path to the myPlayList.xml still just “undefined” for  
the track … please see the attachment for a screen shot of this. and  
the current code as well.

If you have any ideas, it’s greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time
