Cool Help with MP3 Files

Hi, can anyone help me please??

I'm building a site which I want to put MP3 files on to, how do I stop the link to the files playing in browser window? I want the download window to pop up, with out users having to right click and select'save target as'
Many thanks Rick

try zipping them, as you will also want to reduce the file size.

Re: Help with MP3 Files

there isn't realy any way you can do that, how the file is handled is left up to the browser. I could be wrong of course.
