Here is an example of an
.asx file named pointing
towards an content file
named filename.wma
To
create your .asx
file ("stub"
file) open a notepad
window, copy and paste
this code and save as
test1.asx, replacing the
URL with your content
file. Create a valid link
something like this test1.asx
on your server and voilą
! When the surfer clicks on that link it points towards the asx file which
opens the player and plays the content file. For this example you would see the
Title/Name/Author/Copyright.
These are optional tags,
used for illustration
purposes only.
