Im trying to allow access to resources(jpg, mp3, wmv, pdf, etc) on some internal servers whether the user(usually me) is on the local network or not by using a webrequest/httpwebresponse and then forwarding the returned stream to the output of the page.
EDIT SOLVED(enough)
Using the below code I can return data and the appropriate content type . Images are displaying as expected, but I just tried the same thing with an mp3 and it made windows media player open as expected but I got an error stating wmp cannot play the file.
Do I need to force a download or is there something wrong with the logic when mp3s are involved?
Thanks in advance
