Anyone offhand know how to pass a different file name to a browser when
they try to download the link? I want to let users download 30 second
mp3's stored in a mysql database. My first thought was just to create add
*mp3 to apache as a php script and then make a php file called something
like "song.mp3" where the table and ID were passed to the "song.mp3" script
by POST.

Not the prettiest way to go. I haven't got too far into the docs yet, but
Its got to be easier... I'd like to have dynamic file generation, like
artist-song.mp3...

Is anyone interested in a network attached mp3 player running off a
JetDirect 170? I can post some pictures somewhere...

Thanks,
Grant
