Do it with java script... It will end up being like a drop down nav menu probablly and it will just redirect to the sound file and you might have to zip your sound file. Look for combo box navigation or drop down navigation and just link up the file you want the user to download instead of a page.

your even handler
<form>
<Select name="pulldown">
<option value="song1.zip">Song 1
<option value="song2.zip">Song 2
<option value="song3.zip">Song 3
<option value="song4.zip">Song 4
</select>
<input type="button" name="download" value="go"
onclick="pagechanger(document.navform.pulldown
.options[navform.pulldown.selectedindex].value)">
</form>
your head stuff
<script language="javascript">
<!--- hide
function pagechanger(page)
{
document.location= page;
document.navform.pulldown.options[0].selected="true"
}
// stop hide -->
</script>
If ym theory is correct then sending the user to a zipped sound file like you whould another page whould force a download because the browser cannot handle a ziped file. I have never used java script for downloads before so I could be wrong but try it and see if it works. If it doesn't this whould be something to post about on the java script forum like how to do this. You can also instead of using a command button set your menu to onchange if you want, but its just my personal preference to use a command button.

The even handlers (the top code) do exactly what their name says, they handle the events set fourth by the function. However the other code goes in your head, the function. This code was originally intended for navigation, so i an not 100% sure it will server your purpose. But try it. If my theory is correct it will work just fine. If you want to play the songs live just replace the options with paths to your songs. if you want other to download them zip them and insert the path to you ziped files

when you use the drop down list do the sound files play live?

are they preloaded? Tell your friend to put them in zipped files and change the paths and then delete all the preloading stuff... unless he still wants live play
