I hope this is the right place to put this.
I am wondering how to create a playlist (.pls) file
So I can upload it to my web site and have people down load the listen.pls
And listen to music or what ever I chose to put in the play list.

Bottom Right of Winamp, Manage Playlist, click that than Save playlist..it will save whaever you have in your Playlist right now.....it won't work for them though, unless they have the Songs also...or you have them Hosted somewhere.

the listen.pls thing is for shoutcast things. Ask about shoutcast on the winamp forums and someone'll point you in the right direction to get started.

actually m3u and pls can be used for multi-track or single playlist entries, both local, remote mp3s and shoutcast urls

Thanks, never used Winamp before, but it seems cool. If I wanted to upload the song and play list I would have to put the songs and the play list in the same folder on the server so people could listen even if they don't have the songs on there hard drive right.

they should work as long as your playlist dosn't include local path that point to your harddrive, ie http;//Your.url/folder/song.mp3 not c:\song.mp3

BTW you can edit/check your playlist with notepad to make sure everything is ok before uploading it
