If your hyperlinks are just hrefs to the files on the user's computer; you have absolutely no control over how a browser or a user chooses to deal with those files; in the same way as you have no control over whether a user chooses to open or save a file when presented with a download box. There's plenty of good reasons why.

If you were to change your tactics somewhat, and embed the music onto your pages; you'd have alot more control over the display of the embedded media player; but perhaps still security errors if you're accessing local content (files on the user's machine), and it'll be more work for you developing a way to access the (hidden) media players.

For code to embed a WindowsMediaPlayer into an HTML page:

If you want to hide that player, remove this line:

 style="position:absolute; left:0;top:0;"

style="position:absolute; left:0;top:0;"

and replace it with this line:

 display="none"

if you want it to not play automatically; remove this line:

<PARAM NAME="AutoStart" VALUE="True">

<PARAM NAME="AutoStart" VALUE="True">

and see the bit at the bottom of that page for controlling the player using Javascript. [insert your media player ID].start() probably works to start a media player that doesn't have auto start enabled.
