I am creating a little JavaScript music player that sits on the btottom of the page, a lot like streampad. But streampad uses a flash progress bar for the song and JavaScript for everything else and I am having a hard time finding anyone who does this with JavaScript alone. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how this can be done (preferably without using HTML5)?

There’s no way to do this with just Javascript, without going into html5 (the audio tag).
SoundManager 2 has a hidden flash component, and the UI is completely in JS. It’s up to you to implement a seekbar or whatever you want, but there’s a whole lot of example code. SM2 seems pretty popular, and is used by a number of big sites (Soundcloud, Last.fm, Muxtape).
