[Rhodes22-list] Mp3 test

[Mark Kaynor]

Slim,

Forgot to mention - when you create a web page using Word, you first need to
save the file in "Web Page (HTML)" format rather than DOC format. When you
do this, Word creates a subdirectory with the same name as the file with a
"_files" appended and sticks the supporting graphics, attachments, etc. in
that directory. In other words, if your document is named "mymp3.htm",
you'll also see a new "mymp3_files" directory created in the same location
as the file. 

To get the page to display properly you need to copy both the file and the
associated subdirectory up to the server.

Mark, Ben, Ron,
Thanks for the help.  I spent a couple hours yesterday trying to establish
my home page.  Road Runner gives me a whopping 5 meg allowance for free.
Their page for the set up doesn't seem to be working right and wouldn't
allow me to get it done.  I also downloaded Fetch which is a web page making
software recommended for Mac.  I tried to follow their directions, but to no
avail.  I also followed Ron's steps and I was able to create a link in a
Word doc that contained a song file and would open and play the song on my
computer, but I wasn't able to make it "go" to the web.  I guess the next
step is to get on the phone with Road Runner and get them to walk me through
the steps to establish my home page.
