Why doesn't my radio work?

Okay i've recently bought a radio server and i've put it on a freewebs site(yes i'm cheap). I put the html in and it won't connect off winamp and the play/stop buttons dont work. What could be wrong?

Ummm have you got the winamp shoutcast plugin or you need a special plugin fromy your host

Whats your port? and I'll give a code and see if it matches your one.

You need to make sure your address and prot are in correctly or it wont work

Try this;

Code:

<object id="MediaPlayer" type="application/x-oleobject" height="38" standby="Please wait while we start the radio!" width="156" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6">
<param value="LINKAGE HERE" name="URL" ref>

The address of your SHOUTcast server.. Example;
82.156.552.26:4898

So: http://IPADDRESS:PORT

or cud be:

http://Yourhost.com:yourport

its your host or your hosts IP not your sites followed by the port

when you brought it they should have given you details, use them
