play an mp3?

Hi Derek,

your script will only work if the mp3 is in the current directory...

type this into the message box and hit enter:

answer file "Please choose a mp3 file:"; set the filename of player "My 
Player" to it


This will let you select a file and sets the filename to the absolute 
path to your
mp3. Now the filename is set and "start player My Player" should work...

Hope that helps...
