^ Yeah, because all of the songs on your MP3, should be on your computer?

Yeh should imagine its possible, is this if you dont have a player on your pc?! just out of curiousity

No, I don't think it's possible.

Since when has a site (without ActiveX or something) been able to access your computers files.

With activex i should imagine its possible? You could temporarily get the file location from a file input form which it then plays :S i think thats possible.

That would require the file to be uploaded to the server as a server cannot read the file from someone's HD without it being uploaded or something.

There's no way really you're going to do that unless, like Simon said, you know how to code an ActiveX control.

Although couldn't use use javascript to read the location with just a normal input form :S

couldnt you use:


file://C:/documents and settings/name/my documents ?

How would you determine the files in the directory using file://

Ive seen it done before, by a company called JAVAZOOM or something, its atually Java but with a html input form.

think its http://www.javazoom.net/applets/applets.html mp3 player

That UPLOADS the files. It would be a space killer and he wanted them to STREAM not upload I think.
