The fileurl should look like this: fileurl = $(‘a’, html).attr(‘href’); It’s a pretty simple fix. I would do some validation on this: if(/\.mp3\b/.test(fileurl)){ //Do something awesome }else{ alert(‘The file you selected is not an MP3.’); } Cheers!
Changing Top Level Items into Radio Buttons in the Categories Meta Box?
I’m pretty sure you could use JavaScript to do this for you very simply.

How can I avoid re-inventing the Custom Fields wheel in my Plugin’s Metabox?
The short answer is that there isn’t any straightforward way to do this, since the custom field metabox was not written with extensibility in mind.

Arrange custom fields with drag and drop?
In this example of repeatable custom fields, we can see that the following jQuery is needed: $(‘#repeatable-fieldset-one tbody’).sortable({ opacity: 0.6, revert: true, cursor: ‘move’, handle: ‘.sort’ }); And the HTML it controls is (simplified): <table id=”repeatable-fieldset-one” width=”100%”> <thead> <tr> <th width=”2%”></th> <th width=”30%”>Name</th> <th width=”60%”>URL</th> <th width=”2%”></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <?php if ( $repeatable_fields ) … Read more
