Music downloads from a flash site?

1

Hello there,

I have put together a little flash website and I want to add a section for downloading mp3 and movies… :mu:
…but I’m having some issues. Can anyone explain the best way to go about this? Any help would be much appreciated…

Thanks,
Andie

you could always zip up the mp3 and link to the zips from within flash. Just put a brief description on the site that the music will be zipped up and will need to be unzipped.

so the code on your button would look like this:

on (release)
{
getURL(“http://www.yoursite.com/ace_song.zip”);
}

or if you have Flash 8, theres a new feature: FileReference
It allows alot more control over file downloads including flash downloading bars and such.

I think I have been over-complicating matters!

Thanks!
