Both of these files need to be included after the Yahoo Media Player. The file ‘ef.ymp.utilities.js’ is needed for manipulating cookies, setting styles, and using MD5 hashes to store UIDs for the tracks.

After posting to a few forums I realized people were also looking for a way to control the seek position in the player. So here it is.

Moved the slider into the main meta panel. Thanks to Stephen Garcia for a little insight into the future state.
Also changed the default color of the slider to a muted grey which matches the playlist and added a highlight color which matches the other greens.

I use a media player on my site for listening to my music wherever I am. For the longest time I was using the flash based version from Lacy Morrow. At some point I wanted to have more than one playlist and so the search began for an alternative that had basically the same features. It needed the following criteria to be met in order for me to use it.
- small UI footprint
- xspf playlist support
- autostart
- autoresume
My search turned up only disappointment. Then someone at work suggested I give Yahoo's MediaPlayer a try. They suggested EasyListener, but as I searched for this I found a gem; (Y)ahoo (M)edia (P)layer. YMP had everything I wanted excpet that it did not support resuming tracks from page to page. This was a crucial feature I had become dependent on over the years from using Lacy's jukebox.
I read the threads and found that the team was working on this feature, but had no ETA on a good solution. And then... came... trackResume.
This is a little script I wrote that provides track seek recording and resuming. There is obviously a gap in the music when a page reloads, but this is as close as you're going to get without having something running in the browser itself or a frame.
OK, so let's get to it.

Corrected problem where pressing pause then play would cause the song to start from the beginning.
