Hey, First I'll ask my OT question. I've been thinking lately of implementing a system on my band's website where people can log in, and maintain a playlist of all the mp3's I have on the site. Obviously when they want to play it, or a single file, they can hit play and the m3u file will automatically download to whatever mp3 player their using. If you used winamp, you probably know the idea I'm getting at. Anyways...I'm confused on one part. this is what the m3u file looks like: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:183,Greyboy Allstars - Jack Rabbit \\Cocuzzo2\cocuzzo dr d\nap\Greyboy Allstars - Jack Rabbit.mp3 #EXTINF:96,Greyboy Allstars - Let the music take your mind \\Cocuzzo2\cocuzzo dr d\nap\Greyboy Allstars - Let the music take your mind.mp3 #EXTINF:184,Greyboy Allstars - Soul Dream \\Cocuzzo2\cocuzzo dr d\nap\Greyboy Allstars - Soul Dream.mp3 #EXTINF:105,Greyboy Allstars - Fried grease \\Cocuzzo2\cocuzzo dr d\nap\Greyboy Allstars - Fried grease.mp3 #EXTINF:119,Greyboy Allstars Who's Gonna Be The Junkie \\Cocuzzo2\cocuzzo dr d\nap\Greyboy Allstars Who's Gonna Be The Junkie.mp3 #EXTINF:117,Greyboy Allstars - Gravee \\Cocuzzo2\cocuzzo dr d\nap\Greyboy Allstars - Gravee.mp3 I understand all of this except for those numbers after the #EXTINF. Does anyone know what they mean? my php question is, what functions might I use to do something like this. I've been checking out some code, and I've seen things like people using buffers and http functions to get the whole thing working.
