Hi guys,

Here is my problem. my boss wants me to put a "click here" link on an asp page. This link is for an mp3. right now i did it like this:

<a href="song.mp3" target="_blank"> Click Here </a>

this will pop-up a new window then prompt if the user should save it to disk or open it, in which case the default media player will launch. But my boss doenst want to give that choice. All he wants is when a user clicks on the link, it will launch the default media player, be it itunes, winamp or windows media player. Is there a way to do this guys? PLease help!

Thanks in advance, I'll be awaiting your replies, as my boss wants this ASAP. Talk about bossy, hehehe.
