upload music(mp3s etc.) to site

Post icon  Posted 09 May 2009 - 10:17 AM

Hello my name is Ian confused. I know very little about programing and need some one to help find the necessary code that will enable users to upload music(mp3, wav, etc.) to my site. Here is the the HTML code for my web form page:
<html>
<head>
<title>car_radio_template2</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<script language="Javascript" type="text/Javascript">
<!--
function MM_reloadPage(init) {  //reloads the window if Nav4 resized
  if (init==true) with (navigator) {if ((appName=="Netscape")&&(parseInt(appVersion)==4)) {
	document.MM_pgW=innerWidth; document.MM_pgH=innerHeight; onresize=MM_reloadPage; }}
  else if (innerWidth!=document.MM_pgW || innerHeight!=document.MM_pgH) location.reload();
}
MM_reloadPage(true);
//-->
</script>
</head>

I would greatly appreciate any help or at least if some one could point me in the right direction. I know this is asking for a lot but i can't wait to get this site up and running properly .

Sincerely,
Ian confused

Well since this has absolutely nothing to do with C/C++, and no language was specified by you I'm moving this to the Web Development forum :)

Hey, You might want to look into using PHP to achieve your goal, at the moment when your form submits it sends the data via the POST method to a CGI script, if you want to do it with CGI then that is possible however PHP is soooo much easier (In my opinion).

For achieving your goal with CGI check out this link: http://webdesign.abo.../a/aa030899.htm

However to do it with php, check out this link... If you're new to all this stuff then it will be completely baffling, but just stick with it and it all makes sense in no time :)

Thanks for the heads up,

I will definitely look into PHP and the link you sent me. Also thanks for the encouragement.

regards,
Ian

Thanks,

I guess the right forum would help. LOL So far some one has recommended PHP. My Dreamweaver book said that Pearl would do the trick. anyways thanks for taking your time out of your day.

regards,
Ian
