I hit a big bump in the road with building my web site. Microsoft picture it! web building program wo
nt read my song clip files that I want to attached to click buttons so people can listen to them. The files won't show up in. I've tried all kinds of things.
SO, is there a web building program that makes this easy and is easy to understand and use. Maybe this could be a survey question.
Or maybe you know how to get the song clips going in the picture it program? Has anyone got song clips to click buttons on their web sites????

Wow. I can't think of a worse web authoring program. Try learning HTML and writing by hand. YOu can find many HTML tutorials on the net for free, and teach yourself in about a week or two.
If you want a drag and drop type app, I recommend Dreamweaver if you can spring for it. Others include Front Page and PageMill. I'm sure there are lots of free apps out there for webpage construction. I think AOL has one.
To make a button play a music file, all you have to do is link the button to the mp3 file. When the user clicks the button their computer will either play it or download it, depending on their settings.

Picture It! as a web authoring program? I couldn't think of a more painful and anoying way to author a web page if I tried. Even Front Page would be a step up from Picture It! Personaly I find either Dreamweaver or Home Site to be the best choice you can make to write your code in other than opening notepad and doing it the right way.

If you're looking for a free solution, I belive Netscape still bundles an HTML editor with Communicator. It writes sloppy code, but it is a very intuitive program last I remember it. I'd give that a try over Picture It!
