HTML - How To Play Sound In Background

I can't seem to get a sound to play on my site. I can edit the code and execute it on my computer and it works fine. When I upload it to my page, it doesn't work. I use Firefox but also tried it with IE. I have tried both EMBED and BGSOUND. The sound is a very small WAV file. Where am I going wrong?

Hello,

Can someone please help me with this: I am trying to embed a sound into a text link...here is the code:

<li><a class="last" href="index.html">Inchide Sistemul</a></li>

...when I click the link I want to play a sound, how can I modify the code to do that?


Thanks

I was wondering how i add sound to my webpage, so that it plays when the user enters the page, but with a play and stop button.

I am on myspace. I am trying to send a comment with a sound wav. I don't want a link I want a small player that will play the file. I want it to be Html but I don't know how to get it that way. I've tried everything . Help??!

I have a couple of problems with this layout.
First of all I have set up a script for mouse over sound over the nav, but when i mouse over nothing happens.
Next I have set up another script that has random images but for some reason it has made the layout unaligned.
Last, towards the bottom it has a blank spot for a search (for the web-site) could somebody explain how to create a search for the content inside the site.

Thank you in advance

Just wondering if anyone knows a good way to loop like a 3 second sound clip on a page? I want it to start as soon as the page loads and keep looping. Any help would be awesome. Thanks

I am using the following code to embed sound files and everything works fine but I would like for the sound files to begin downloading when "play" is hit and not when the web loads (automatically starting the download of all sound files). Thanks.

<embed src="gtr.mp3" autostart="false" loop="false" width="300" height="42" controller="true" bgcolor="#F9000"></embed>

This is what I got...

Quote:
<bgsound src="music/nameofsong.mp3" loop="0" id="sound" />
Quote:
<script type="text/javascript">
function stop() {
document.getElementById("sound").src = "";
}
</script>
Quote:
<input type="button" onclick="stop();" />
It all works... fine, but not up to my standard.

The button is so bad

What I want to accomplish is this...

A person goes on the site, music is playing, at the bottom of the page there is an 'onoff' option. They click 'off', it goes to regular, and the 'on' turns bold.

When they click on, viseversa happenes.

Is this possible with regular HTML :S

Having sucha headache here.. tried a lot

Hey, I'm about 50% done creating my website. And I was thinking of adding sounds to my links (on mouseover).

Well I decided that I definitely want to. I've picked out the sound. The only problem is, I only know how to add sound to a link like that using javascript. And with 50% of all of my pages created. I don't want to go back through all of those pages to add javascript into the header and change the coding and all of that stuff.

So is there anyway I can add my sound using CSS (all of my pages are linked to a CSS file). This way I won't have to edit ALL of my pages, instead, just my CSS sheet.

Thanks in advanced.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently making a Super Mario Bros website. I'm using hover buttons. Those question mark stones and when you hover over them a coin comes out with the tittle of the page the button refers to.

I also have a Flash file with the sound of the coins from Super Mario Bros. The file is called Coin.swf.

How do I get the sound to play once when you hover over them?

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
