Neil, Yes just this last couple weeks created a database of archived audio
information. I've ASP pages created from Dreamweaver to list out this weeks
and the last 30 days audio archives. The links for each archive pass a URL
parameter to a "buildASX.asp" page that fires off the player and plays the
audio file. Even have it including the HTMLview param to see the database's
description text for each archive.
What's the ASP to tell it to play a different entry, my "Not Ready Yet"
audio, if it can't find my audio file yet (i.e. I haven't put the audio file
on the server yet)? It works fine with a standard text .asx file with two
entries. But have problems getting my "buildASX.asp" file to work.
