preloading off "onChange" handler

2003-03-04

To anyone who will help somone who has run out of things to try to make something work. . .

I have an mp3 player on my site and I am wondering if anyone can help me with preloading the mp3 files.

to see this go to:

On my machine this little player works perfectly, but live I need to show that it is preloading the mp3. When you choose a song from the drop down menu it should begin loading the mp3. The drop-down is attached to an onChange handler which loads the value (mp3 url) and begins to play it. So I need a preloader attached to that onChange

maybe something like:

onChange-->load value-->stream mp3
|
v
getbytesLoaded
|
|
v
pass loaded bytes to dynamic txt field
I have been trying things out for a few days now, no luck. Please let me know if you have anything

(also.. .off the subject, does anyone know how to populate an HTML txt field dynamically? Piece of cake in Flash, now I need to do it in html.)

the "get bytes loaded" should branch off "load value"
