I've not done what you're asking, so I may not have the right picture.

I guess you're asking how you detect from the server that something (end
of an mp3) has happened on a browser. (without user action)

The short answer is you can't.  (The fundamental design of a browser
avoids that.)

PS.  If the mp3 player generates "events" you have a chance, but it
would take a lot of testing if you need to script cross player / cross
browser.  If I were you I'd have a look for a specialist web site /
newsgroup that is focused on this subject.  They might know a trick or
two.

Mike,

But shouldn't there be an event that is raised when the .mp3 file
completes? The ASP program should be able to respond to that.

Not sure if this will help or not.

the media control in a web page. It's targeted for the CE operating

that may give you some clues.
