Go to the page with the stand alone player, right-click on the page and select view source. Look for the <object></object> tags and copy paste all the code between those two tags where you want it on the MySpace page. This code may include the <embed> tag. Include this too. If only the embed tag is there then copy/paste that code into where you want it on your MySpace page.

You might try using MySpace's New Profile Editor. You must be logged in and using Internet Explorer until they get this working for all browsers.

This is the current and actual code that is used on the MySpace page which MySpace will strip away if you try to install it yourself:

Code: <div id="mini">
Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer/">Click here</a> to get the latest flash player.

</div>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var s = "http://lads.myspace.com/mini/mini.swf?b=MTY2MjU3NTE=&o=ODc4MzI5ODg=&d=MTE5MDIyMDgxNw==&i=MTk0MTY1Njk5&a=RmFsc2U=";
var so = new SWFObject( s , "mini", "295", "51", "8", "#ffffff");
so.addParam("allowscriptaccess", "always");
so.addVariable("culture", "en-US");
so.write("mini");
// ]]>
</script>

The code part that is the actual player above is:

Code: http://lads.myspace.com/mini/mini.swf?b=MTY2MjU3NTE=&o=ODc4MzI5ODg=&d=MTE5MDIyMDgxNw==&i=MTk0MTY1Njk5&a=RmFsc2U="

I would suggest you use a MySpace Player Maker site:

MYsPLAYER MySpace Music Player

or pick one from a Google search.

Unless the powers at MySpace have changed their collective minds, the embed tags are filtered out. I haven't checked lately. JS is filtered for security reasons, but MySpace has been filtering out embed, iframe, and object tags, swf file types and one or two others.

This filtering is why some people have problems entering their own code and getting it to take. Use of the MySpace Profile Editor helps you do a lot of things you normally want to do. It is a complex editor because of the number of tools you have to use.

Use of other MySpace Generators from other sites work very well, too. Good luck on adding the embed code given.
