Okay, I am fairly sure that when you do a regular link such as

CODE
<a href="music.mp3">My Song</a>


That is SHOULD play the song [as in going to a media player].

But my links, that I uploaded onto my server, go the the downloading screen that says [open, save, close] (just like any other downloading screen).

Do you know what the problem may be?

If you can help, I would like to know the code that will play my mp3 file urls [and im 100% sure they're mp3 files].

Thank You
--Jordan

ok, so this is what you have.
1.what you need to do is create a new text document in that folder, so "New Document.txt".
2.open it with notepad, write "music.mp3". you're done, that's all that needs to be in there.
3.save it.
4.rename this saved new document to "music.m3u".
5.upload it along with your mp3 file.
6.in your html, change what you originally had, to:

CODE
<a href="music.m3u">My Song</a>


that's all there is. Basically instead of having to go straight to the mp3, you created a playlist with 1 song in it. With playlists, you most likely wont be asked to save or open. default media player will open it automatically as streaming file.
