I'm not quite sure exactly what you mean...

Are you looking to produce a link that will download a wav?

Sorry for being not clear, what I meant to say was how to produce a link that will play a .wav file when clicked on, not download it.

Then you need to embed the wav file in the new page. (I take it your "wildcat" directory holds some kind of HTML file to display)? Just embed the wav file in that.

ok...
i see your problem..
this is the code i would use.
Code: [ Select ]
<embed src="NAMEOFSONG.WAV" autostart=false loop=false height=45 width=350 controls="smallconsole">

this will make a little box 45x350, it will look like a windows media player box, with start, pause, rewind ect. depending on the users version of windows.
it will look like this
<embed src="music/goingunder.au" autostart=false loop=false height=45 width=350 controls="smallconsole">
(i dont have any music atm :P)

ARe you looking for something that will be dynamic? If so. . I would use a javascript function that will set the embed src. This will allow you to go to your default copyright page, and play a sample of music. This page will be able to handle multiple files, only playing 1 at a time.

You will do this by sending a javascript variable within the html link.

so. . .

<a href=www.yourdomain.com/musicfiles/play.html?song=whatyouhere.wav>Click to play</a>

this will send the variable of whatyouhere.wav to your html page.

THEN. . .

you will use this variable to define a embed src and later use onLoad() to play the music when it loads.

-you have been stung-
