I am working with the ID3_GET_TAG() func to read mp3 information from a directory. The id3 tags are returned successfully but some attributes with longer string values for example: song title, are being trimmed to just 30 characters. It does not make any sense to me why you would force to cap-off the number of characters in the song title at just 30 and I haven't been successfully in my attempts to overwrite the default 30 character limit from either the .ini file or within my code. Can you recommend a solution to get around this? see: http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.id3-get-tag.php

thanx bud. does exactly what i want!

Does PHP GD allow conversion of images from full color to monochrome or black/white?

@Teamatomic I f a user uploaded an MP3 with higher quality example 128kbps and i wanted to drop it down to 96kbps after the file is uploaded, that would give me a smaller file to serve to users on the website. Instead of feeding a 10MB file to the swf player I could end up fetching a 6MB file, this is what I am trying to achieve.

Is basic MP3 compression to smaller size possible with either PHP 5+ or Zend Framework?

for anyone that might be running into the same issue I came up with a solution, you have to construct your Ajax url as follows: http://username:password@stage.domain.ca/gateway.php this will bypass the .haccess login form when your local script hits your remote script RESOLVED

I have a .htaccess protected page that requires users to enter a user-name and password before viewing the page. This page is uploaded to a remote staging server. What I would like to do is be able to make Ajax requests to the page from code residing on my localhost, and as part of the call, perhaps pass the user-name and password as HTTP headers so my script will be allowed access to the protected page. I know this is possible with Flash but I would like to give it an attempt with just Ajax. Any suggestions?

Im having trouble getting ht-access redirects to work on the remote server which has IIS7 installed. I usually work on my localhost with WAMP and everything works fine: RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule !\.(js|ico|txt|gif|jpg|png|css)$ index.php Whats the best approach to get an .ht-access file to work on IIS7? It looks like the server totally ignores it. I looked up the PHP info and it lists _SERVER["IIS_UrlRewriteModule"] = 1 There is definitely an IIS RewriteModule installed but how do I get it to read the .ht-access? - Liberty

thanks. but what i am looking for is password protection to a url and not protection based on a location. something that would still use the .htpasswd file but applied to a url

is this possible by any chance? and how would you implement .htaccess protect on a url instead of a folder

am i missing something here?

thnk u very much DarkWater & dropfaith works!
