Hi,

I guess, that is possible by setting some HTTP headers from a
server-side script. I guess, Content-Disposition header.

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2183


Content-Type -> "audio/x-mpeg"
Content-Disposition -> "attachment"




In PHP, I will do like this:

<?php
      //getsong.php
      header('Content-type: audio/x-mpeg');
      header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="song.mp3"');
     
      readfile('song1.mp3');
?>


You will request the mp3 through the server-side script, it means you
will not use direct url of  mp3 in flex, instead send a query to a
server-side script...


Does it make sense?

Sorry for delay on this replay...set the project aside for a bit.

I was actually referring to DOWNLOADING. Currently, if you load an
MP3, you can play it, but I want to actually prompt the user to save
the file on their local drive...

Thanks,

Drew
