I took a crash course in javascript from some online docs when I needed to
come up with some scripting to get a job done.

You're on the right track. In the radio_load_2.html file, you'll see a
function called wihchPath. this determins where to go next, based on the
browser used. One bit says:
if (OpSys == "Linux") {
window.location = buildOldURL();
Good enough for me. so I scroll down to
function buildOldURL() {
and down a little it says:
if(args.showType == "live") {
return("http://www.cnet.com/radio/rlu/live_2.html";);
So that's where we go, kids.
And on the 3rd screen you'll find:
var livePathRmp = "http://www.cnet.com/radio/playlist/live.ram";;
If anyone wants the URLs I have for the javascript tutes and references,
just let me know. A little bit of javascript knowlege helps a lot when
figuring out this stuff.
Geoff.
