iphone auto play on mp3 link

Oct 16, 2007 5:01AM PDT

hi there I am developing a web server application from pc-to iphone.

the web page on safari currently uses a javascript handler to call a mp3 file from the server. in the iphone there is an intermittent page that holds the file requested and it doesn't auto play. once the page shows the file you have to click it to play it.

when I go to other pages that have .mp3 links and click on them the iphone auto plays it.

anyway you can think of to get the auto play to work?

I am going to try to remove the ? with a rewrite and see if it works.

thanks
