I have a MP3 that I want to put in a Artical so users can play it from my site. How would one do this?
You can use a streaming block or something (check the block code snippets board for more info), or you can just post a link to the file and let them play it.
Works better in Jscript-popup window..that way it doesn't get reloaded with each page klick.
Due to the fact I'm not a real web designer could you give me a little more direction?
try using this http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=Flash_MP3_Player
that mp3 player can be customized to show only 1 mp3 as well
ull have to read all the instructions on their page to get it up and running :up:
dont worry its not that hard
you could try this, then you can place it anywhere in the page
<embed src="yourmusic.mp3"
width="140" height="40" autostart="false" loop="FALSE">
</embed>
To make the music play automatically the parameter is Autostart="TRUE"
You can put "FALSE" instead of "TRUE" so the person visiting your page will have to click on the play button for it to start.
Heres (http://www.lesmonds.co.uk/smf/index.php?page=28) is a demo

Do i have to install anything to do that?
no just add the mp3. what I did was create a folder in my Forum directory i.e /smf/music/ and added the mp3 to it. with this bit src="yourmusic.mp3" I had to put the full path to the mp3
so it looks like this
<embed src="http://www.mysite.co.uk/smf/music/your.mp3"
width="140" height="40" autostart="false" loop="FALSE">
</embed>
its a good quick method :up:
thanks for sharin
Does it stream the mp3? Here, it first download it, and start playback once its complete.
