Author Stumped by link to wma file.

Heya folks,

Hey MAC USERS quick question...

Any idea why this link on an email of a streaming windows media player file
(.wma) opens without a hitch. Try it yourself:

http://www.pcmghosting.com/campbell...uthskillpt1.wma

BUT

When the same link is embedded on my website it prints out jibberish and
doesn't work.

Here's the link: http://www.truthindating.com/stream...ruthskills.html
Select: CLICK TO HEAR STREAMING AUDIO

Any guesses?

Thanks for your help. I'm stumped.

Howard

I'm thinking that the MIME type for this particular extension probably isn't
mapped in the web server's configuration, so it's just streaming it out as a
bunch of text versus telling the browser that it needs to download the file
and open it with WMP.

Best regards,
Chris
