All right so the name of the file I uploaded is Me - Untitled Final
The file name in the web shell box shows up as Me_-_Untitled_Final.mp3 (3.60M) 04/02/2003
The web address to my site is http://angelfire.com/pa5/jsgksu
Ive uploaded the file, I go to index.html and go to edit, what exactly should I type in for the for the Title of my link, how many links should I change it to and what should I put in for the URL and under description. I am so lost, I dont know why the word I put for link shows up but isnt a link.

Try editing the song name....make is some name with no spaces...for instance - "mysong.mp3". Then link it on your index.html and give it a shot. Yahoo webspace only allows files with no spaces. Just double check it's exact words...most likely case sensitive as well.
