    Sorry for this. Hands up, I'm a tech idiot, I need your help.

    This seems to be the most simple thing to do on this web... Get this http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/ to work on a wordpress site, but it has me completely scatty.

    Can someone explain where I'm going wrong, what type of file needs to go in the first box? Does it need to have right-click download MP3 option or can it just be a click-to-hear audio link or do I have this all wrong and is it neither.

    Secondly, I downloaded a yahoo media player plugin for my WP site, dam fine lot of good thats done me, has no instructions on how to use the plug-in or how it makes it simpler to use with the plug-in v. without.

    Currently (like I said, clueless) I'm doing this to link to the file on this page http://www.box.net/shared/krijdtlt52

    [HTML]
    <a href="http://www.box.net/shared/krijdtlt52">Song Title (Terrorish)</a>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/js"></script&gt;
    [/HTML]

    But no success...

    Overall, I don't have a breeze where I've gone wrong. I don't know if I need to upload files, or find them and link on the net or what the craic is. Give me a hand if you can.

    Cheers


    Mark
