Does anyone know what is code for letting other people download files from the webpage. I DONT mean in realplayer format. I want others to download my mp3s.
thanks

I haven't not tried this. But try this one
Download

Note /html is your html directory. Change it to directory containing your mp3 file.

/html is relative path to your http server root.
if your httpd.conf file has configuration so that your root becomes /var/www then
/html is /var/www/html

if you make mp3 directory in /var/www/mp3 then put the link as
/mp3/mysong.mp3..
let me know if it works

In order to let visitors download your mp3s, simply link to the mp3s as you would any other page or images. In most cases, browsers thesedays will automatically play the mp3 files or pop up your windows media player to play the mp3s.

The best way for visitors to download the mp3 files into thier computer without having it play automatically is to instruct your visitors to - Right click on the link and select 'SAVE TARGET AS' which will give them the prompt to save the mp3 into their computers.

For example: Right click on the link below and highlight 'Save Target As'

DownloadChllo by Hangu

The html tag for the above was:

<a target=new href="http://www.sajha.com/uploads/chillo.mp3">Download
Chllo by Hangu</a>

Ignore the 'target=new' portion. Whenever someone puts a link on sajha, I set it to automatically insert this so that the page opens up in a new browser as opposed to the same browser.

Hey Bro y u need to have mp3 files ??? realaudio is good enough u know.Mp3 file is so big compare to realaudio.May b u want to provide people with high quality music, is it??/ Well, actually if u play realaudio file on a speaker u can't tell much about the quality unless of course u play the realaudio music on a headphone; those high, mid and lows can be quite bad.

My advice to is stick to a realaudio file.It is small and most people regardless of their internet connection speed would have no problem enjoying the music.But if u were to use mp3 files people with slow conncetion would be swearing for having to wait ages.

And Bro, I do have "Malai Bhot Deu" on my site .

real audio quality is no match to the mp3 CD quality music. of course the drawback is the size.. that is the trade off.
cool_keta Posted on 17-Jun-04 07:26 AM

danaah, yes i do have a webpage.

www.manandhar.150m.com

its a flash file, so it doesnt work like HTML . What I will do is create a link on html file for my mp3s.
thanks

bhanja,
You are right to some extent. You really cant tell a difference on small speakers. But I was just curious how to do it.

BTW malai vhoot deu is a kickass song. Girish is my nepali eminem.

hey cool_keta,
i've seen your website. Its really cool. To let users download mp3 files from your website, you can also let users use some kind of files download managers like download accelerator which you can get from http://www.download.com and they can just insert the path for the file that they want to download. for eg, if you keep your file in this address as http://www.sajha.com/cool_keta/meromp3file.mp3 then the users will just have to type in this address (http://www.sajha.com/cool_keta/meromp3file.mp3) in the download manager program. I know this is not a smart thing to do but this works. If you dont want the users to type in the path manually u can also put a link to that file in your webpage and let the user to click the link. The download manager will take care of the rest..

cheers..

adios
