Wow - thanks for the quick reply, there is no target as that would
leave a blank window open. Is the anchor changing the page location so
it's trashing the http request.

that statement is the scenario i have, and it works fine in I.E. , is
it to do with the way FF gets <anchors> to audio files, does firefox
trash the page for ANY anchor but I.E. doesn't?

how can I get round this without loading the mp3 into a new page and
leaving an empty window open?
