downloadin files (my bad fade)

[J-malice]

i didnt know exactly where to post this at but i want to know if anyone knows how to make files available for download ona website? then from there i can figure out how to stream them.

what u do is...
upload the mp3 to your server space
the higher the bitrate, the longer it will take to load
so the file will be at like http://www.yourserver.com/yoursong.mp3
then you make a plain text document and name it after your song and save it as yoursong.m3u (you will notice that is the name of the file extention you stream from soundclick if u use windows media player)
in that plain text document, you type http://www.yourserver.com/yoursong.mp3
then u upload this file also
then you insert the HTML in your site for example this one would be
<a href="/yoursong.m3u">click here to stream!</a>
click here to sream could be any text you want...i tried this..it works!

hope that helps!

sorry..it read html code...
its should say

< a href = "/yoursong.m3u"> click here to stream </a>

without the space between "< and a" and ">click" and "stream </a>
