id rather not have only 15 per page as my archive is going to be full of hundreds of mp3's, is there a way of solving these problems

of course i understand if because of wimpy and constraints with the flash buttons etc this isnt possible.

As far as I can tell, this is a problem with dear old Internet Explorer. The scrolling problem does not occur with either Firefox or Opera. I wondered if this was possibly due to IE using the <object> tags and the others using the <embed> tags for Flash, but this seems not to make any difference - as soon as you load up 20+ flash tags on the same page, IE slows to a crawl.

Yes, this is down to the coding of the wimpy button.

Have you tried using the other wimpy addin I've supplied, which uses the regular wimpy player inside the jukebox? This would solve both your problems at the same time - there would only be one flash object at a time, and any request to play a new trac would automatically stop the earlier one.
