The behaviour doesn't depend on the server, depends on the browser settings.

yes... but noone get my point exept nick
i want a link so someone can listen to it... then i want a link to download it... so i want 2 links... i can do the listen one... but how do you do the download link? i have seen this before, but i cant think of where, so i know its not that hard. it will still be their choice if they want to download it or not, but i just wish to know how to do a download link, thats all.
so it will be like...
song name... listen - download
(exept links)
get it?

just put the mp3's you want to be available for download in zip files
that way when they click download they'll download the zip file with the mp3 inside it
