Re: the path to my mp3

Whatever the .mp3 file name is becomes part of the url

eg;

http://www.mysite.com/ultravox_the_collection_track1.mp3

or if you've uploaded it to a dedicated 'music' folder it might look like this

http://www.mysite.com/music/ultravox_the_collection_track1.mp3

where ultravox_the_collection_track1.mp3 is the file name. Do you get the idea?

Re: the path to my mp3

OK I've created a test my end

This is the song/file I am using Ultravox - Dancing With Tears In My Eyes.mp3

On the server I found my site pages for DC Marketing Solutions. Among this I have a folder called bluevoda to where I uploaded the song.

I would normally rename the file to get rid of the spaces between the words but still works none the less.

Here is the result

http://www.dcmarketingsolutions.co.uk/bluevoda/Ultravox%20-%20Dancing%20With%20Tears%20In%20My%20Eyes.mp3

Look in the browser to see the url string.

So my questions are

1) Did you upload the song to where all your site pages are?
2) or did you create a folder within these site pages and upload it to that, if so what did you name the folder?

Re: the path to my mp3

i uploaded to my html public file where all my files are

Re: the path to my mp3

Then the link should be

http://www.streetarena.tv/bigphilly.mp3

is the file name definately bigphilly.mp3 and not BIgpHilly.mp3? The url has to be EXACTLY the same.

Other than that I've think I've explained it clearly and tested it....I can't think of anything else.
