Post a sample page along with what you specifically want to do. "Load music" is pretty vague.
Okay, I want there to be text links that will play mp3 files in the default player when clicked.
Not possible. Unless you use an ActiveX control to make them automatically download and play the file.
This will, though alienate non-IE users, and IE users with security updates or ActiveX turned off.

If he just links to mp3 files, they will play in the default media player.
ActiveX is nothing to do with it ;)
To the original question, try Windows Media Audio 22k or 32k
If you hyperlink to a .mp3 file a box will pop up asking you if you want to download the file or open it. To play it in your default player the user needs to click "open" (which downloads to the temp directory and runs). It wouldn't just play.Quote:

That's true, if he is using WMA, they will be integrated into WMP.
Again, this is IE only though.
Would this not work?
That is what I use to stream video or music on my pages.Code:<embed src="Path_of_file.format" loop=false autostart=true hidden=false>
You could always use Flash, there are plenty of great Flash music templates floating around, some with playlists, search functions, etc.Quote:

That's not a text link though...
Yes flash is nice, I used flash for a banner that plays music, it had a simple preloader, but I lost my damn .fla file and forget how the hell I did it,.... The script I used to make the preloader is here but, I can't seem to figure out how to ad the start and stop function again :frusty:
As for a text link, I made a page with just the embeded src tag then made a text link to a pop up (or you could use target="_blank" if you dont like pop ups) from the main page :ph34r:
This brings up a download box and leaves you with a new, blank window.Quote:

Okay I am getting confused now,...
Does this not stream from the page or am I way off track,... Link
A little off topic but, haxor41789 do you happen to know where I could get something to crack the source code for my swf file or if you could crack it for me,... the damn thing took me days to get right http://nemo.yahoo-help.com/flash.htmlCode:<title>Booty</title>
<body bgcolor="000000" background="images/skullbg07.jpg" bgproperties="fixed">
<center><embed src="mp3/booty1.wmv" loop=true autostart=true hidden=false></center>
Thanks
There's many good ones out there, but my favorite Flash decompiler is Flasm.
And as for the embed, I don't know and never will as I don't touch WMV.
Damn. Keep getting thoughts. :D
Flasm is not a decompiler, it just spits out human-readable byte-code, not ActionScript. You want Flare for that.
Thanks a lot for the link to the de-compiler, I googled for something like that but was wording the search wrong.
I did test out the embed tag with an wmv, avi and an mp3 and it streamed fine in my browser, the only ones I had a problem with the embed tag where .ram, .rm and .mpg, not sure why those formats didn't work with the embed tag.
At any rate thank you for your help and links.
The link to the embeded mp3 file is here, not advertising either, just trying to see if it works for other ppl, as it does work for me, also just trying to help the guy out that started the topic.
Peace
NP, Captain Nemo.
