Do you need MMS or some other streaming software on the webserver?

Well I just create a link to the .WAX file

Code: Select all

<a href=file.wax>link</a>
then the file takes it from there and opens the music file in the appropriate player.

i use real audio and windows media.

Real Audio works good in both browsers. but i dont no what the KCUF is going on with Netscape and playing windows media files....im using netscape 7

did you guys try the link out in netscape?
