hey im making a deejay site and i wanted to know if there is a way people can submit their mixs, as a sound file eg mp3, and is there lyk a html script or sumthing where there can be a upload button on my site ,and the sound files get uploaded to my server area?

you need to learn server side programming like ASP / PHP / JSP which i think would be not as easy as you think, from the sound of it... you may need extra time to learn this things or hire somebody to do this for you.

humm
1st of all, you stole my idea :)
2nd of all, as tabatak said, you need to learn server scrpting. no such thing as html scripts
3rdly, keep in mind mixes take space. usually a mix is 70-100Mb. unless you'r having a dedi with triple hard disks, you'll ran out of space a few minutes after lauching

uploaded.php ::


<?php

/*
Change the value of $upload_dir to refer to the
directory where uploaded files will to be stored.
*/
$upload_dir="uploads";

if (isset($_REQUEST['submit']))
{
if ( ($_FILES['userfile']['error']==UPLOAD_ERR_OK)
&& move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'],
$upload_dir . "/" . $_FILES['userfile']['name'])
)
echo $_FILES['userfile']['name'], " Uploaded</a> <BR>";
else
echo "The upload failed. Please try again.<BR>";
};

?>

whatever.html ::


<FORM enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploaded.php" method="POST">
Upload a file: <INPUT name="userfile" type="file">
<INPUT type="submit" name="submit" value="Send File">
</FORM>
