hi friends,

is there any way we can add sound loop in backgound as the site is running?

i want to have site on CD, it should play sound loop in background.

i used the "EMBED src..." script. it's not working smoothly.

is it possible to play WAV file in bg, as invisible.

i dont want to use flash cause like "Embed src..." script i have to add this in to all htm files.

plz anyone has some suggestions on this..

thanx

regards,

<html>
<body>
<bgsound src="filename.wav" loop="infinite">
</body>
</html>

----------------------
loop="infinite" will loop over and over again.
loop="1" will run it one time... and so on.

aah, you didn't wanna add this to every page, huh...
well, my advice would be to create two frames, <frameset rows="1,*" border="0"> and put the bgsound in the one that has a height of 1 points/pixels(dunno which it is).

Not that I know of, no.
You could open a popup window and run the sound there but that would be unnecessary.

Why don't you wanna use frames?

sketch: If you must then use something like Flash and provide a clear way for people to turn it off. Dracusis did something like this for an assignment and j-man has a great series of tutorials on this starting:
www.gurusnetwork.com/tutorials/flash/sound101.html

However, consider that sound on pages:

1. More often than not just not needed.

2. It annoys most of the people who visit your page.

3. It increases the size of the page and so people have to wait longer to see it.

So give this one careful thought.

My advice? Don't just give people the option to turn it off, but give them the option of turning it on in the first place. In other words, leave it off to begin with and allow people to play it if they wish. If they want to hear it, they can play it.

If they don't, they'll only be annoyed ? and if they're like me, extremely so ? if it plays without their requesting it.
