Hello again!

I'm having problems getting my Real Audio files to play. This is a page that 
lets the viewer choose from 3 samples on each CD. I've encoded each sample 
into an .ra file (with Real Encoder) and made a meta file and saved/uploaded 
it as a .ram file. When I try to check it online, I get a message that the 
file cannot be found. I've emptied my cache and refreshed the page and stood 
on my head in the corner.

This is just a part of the whole page. I know the graphics take too long to 
load and my coding is prolly a mess at this point. Any sound gurus out there 
with help?

And while I've got a captive audience, is this the best method to do what I'm 
wanting to do (provide samples of recordings in hopes of selling some cds)? I 
really don't know about any other ways to do this. How do I indicate that I 
have permission to do this? The purchasing will be handled by the recording 
company.....I'm just providing samples and a link to them (which is not there 
yet. If you'd like it, email me and I'll be happy to share it!)

Happy Holidays!
