Hi, I have built an mp3 player, and when I run it locally on tomcat it works fine. Basically it gets the name of an mp3 from a menu list and loads the mp3 into a sound object using a hardcoded path for the url i.e: “C:/Jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-4.x.x/…” When I try to do this on the server, it is able to populate menu list ok (makes a request to a servlet for an xml response the returns the labels and values for the song titles). The sound does not play though. It appears to be loading, but it does not play. I think that it has to do with the url that I am using. Does anyone have any experence with loading mp3 dynamically on tomcat?

thanks

Ah this is easy, just re-rout the commands of  
soundLoad: () after you re done, then, Your second comand, go back and then reset the var. Values, and after that just get in to the Loc.Fig(2) and delete the secon val. And then your mp3 thing should run fine…

I am just messing, I have no idea… I just felt I should writte something…

Hello tralfazz,  
Sorry, I have never used that feature before, so I do not know how to make a dynamically loaded MP3 play. Also RussianBeer sarcasm is for the Random forums - not in the Help forums were people have some good questions like tralfazz.

Cheers!  
Kirupa 😛
