Okay, so I was going to make a webpage where you could get the lyrics to/listen to a bunch of Linkin Park songs since they are so awesome and everything. And I decided to use my 1337 php skills (or lack thereof) to make it all in one page, and I did it. But the HTML side of playing the songs doesn't seem to be working. First I tried this script, which shows the little control thing, but won't play the songs:
Of course, $song has the song name and the paths are right and such, I've verified all of that. It just won't play.PHP Code:echo "<embed src=\"http://geofryland.kicks-ass.net/music/songs/$song.mp3\" height=\"24\" width=\"275\" autostart=\"true\" loop=\"true\">\n";
echo "<noembed>\n";
echo "<bgsound src=\"http://geofryland.kicks-ass.net/music/songs/$song.mp3\" height=\"24\" width=\"275\" autostart=\"true\" loop=\"true\">";
echo "</noembed>";
So I searched around the internet, and found another script that lets you play a song when you click the link for it. It worked just fine on the site that showed it, so I thought that I'd try it. Here's the code for it.
On the site that showed this version, when I clicked the link Windows Media Player popped up and played the song. But on my website, it just tries to open the .mp3 file in internet explorer, and gets a 404. Again I have verified paths and names, which leads me to believe that maybe I need to configure something in me Apache config file. Any ideas anyone?PHP Code:echo "<a onclick=\"self.location=http://geofryland.kicks-ass.net/music/songs/$song.mp3'; return false\" href=\"#\">Click here to play $song</a>";

Here's the code for the page:
