JavaScript - Random Background Music?
Looking for a way to have background music play automatically when my site loads, with the music being randomly picked from a list of several songs.. So each time the page loads, a different song should play.. Can be JavaScript or Flash, whichever way works the best.. Any ideas?

I have this code: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var numberOfSongs = 5 var sound = new Array(numberOfSongs+1) sound[0]= "music/Rock/1.mp3" sound[1]= "music/Rock/2.mp3" sound[2]= "music/Rock/3.mp3" sound[3]= "music/Rock/4.mp3" sound[4]= "music/Rock/5.mp3" sound[5]= "music/Rock/6.mp3" function randomNumber() { var randomLooper = -1 while (randomLooper < 0 || randomLooper > numberOfSongs || isNaN(randomLooper)){ randomLooper = parseInt(Math.random()*(numberOfSongs+1)) } return randomLooper } var soundFile = sound[randomNumber ()] document.writeln ('<BGSOUND SRC="' + soundFile + '" loop=5>'); document.writeln ('<EMBED SRC= "' + soundFile + '" loop=5 PLAYCOUNT=3 hidden=true autostart=true><P>'); </script> How would it be possible to play another random song after the song finishes?

"Give me a simple and easiest guideline for me" -thank you Hello, I am trying to change the background music on our website to be continuous, right now the music restarts every time you go to a new page. The webmaster who designed the website has this coding on the header page on the includes folder, he said setting it to restart with every page change was the only way we could set it up to be compatible with seo, I have had mixed information about this.

For my website, I have a working script that changes the background image of my website every time it is reloaded. However, I would also like the image to dynamically resize as the user resizes the browser window. here is a code snippet: Code: <head> <script type="text/JavaScript"> /*<![CDATA[*/var el="bgImg";var bgimg=new Array("../00home/06home.jpg","../00home/07home.jpg");var random=Math.round((bgimg.length-1)*Math.random());var cssStr="#"+el+" { background: url("+bgimg[random]+") no-repeat center } ";var style=document.createElement("style");style.setAttribute("type","text/css");if(style.styleSheet){style.styleSheet.cssText=cssStr;}else{var cssText=document.createTextNode(cssStr);style.appendChild(cssText);}document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(style);/*]]>*/ </script> <style type="text/css"> .rotatebg { z-index:0; position:fixed; top:0; left:0; width:1378px; height:1178px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position:inherit; overflow:hidden; } </style> </head <body> <div class="rotatebg" id="bgImg" style="width:100%; height:100%" ></div> </body> Does anyone know how I can augment/alter this coded setup to enable the randomly loaded background image to proportionately fill the browser window? Found this random background img code that works great: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function changeImg(imgNumber) { var myImages = ["images/image0.jpg", "images/image1.jpg", "images/image2.jpg", "images/image3.jpg"]; var imgShown = document.body.style.backgroundImage; var newImgNumber =Math.floor(Math.random()*myImages.length); document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'url('+myImages[newImgNumber]+')'; } window.onload=changeImg; </script> <style type="text/css"> .bg {background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position:0% 0%;} </style> </head> <body class="bg"> <p>Some text</p> <!-- put a lot text lines here to see that the background stays fixed. --> <p>Some text</p> </body> The only problem i have is making the background image width and height 100% so that the entire image fills in the screen and fills in on resize of window. Please Help...thanks in advance I've looked for a solution to this issue, but it seems like a little different scenario than other situations. I made a system for generating friend requests on Facebook. I have a grid that is 6 x 3, for a total of 18 cells. Each cell has a picture in it, and the picture is linked to the Facebook friend request page. My problem is that since each cell is populated at random from the array, I'm getting lots of repeats. For example, some picutures are in 5 cells, and some are in none. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that once a picture is used once in the grid, it does not get used again in the same grid. I still want every cell filled at random on each page load, I just want to prevent the repeating. Here's my current code: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var vip_list=new Array( new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v225/1616/88/s1220771654_2158.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1220771654'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v223/1233/29/s904885342_9055.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=904885342'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v229/1574/66/s1752031238_626.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1752031238'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v223/768/71/n661155042_7325.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=661155042'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v226/732/26/n1827289885_2478.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1827289885'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v229/1631/70/s1425313768_1140.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1425313768'), new Array('http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/pics/s_silhouette.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1667023416'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v225/1146/29/s506485704_9532.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=506485704'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/profile6/270/32/s692160490_8745.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=692160490'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v229/114/83/s1218176198_7375.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1218176198'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v226/946/4/s1470171885_4973.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1470171885'), new Array('http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/pics/s_silhouette.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1329505888'), new Array('http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/pics/s_silhouette.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1325496968'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v223/1546/92/s1536913202_2017.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1536913202'), new Array('http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/pics/s_silhouette.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1624715433'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v228/1282/58/s713998257_3682.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=713998257') );

Thank you! Hello, I need help. Fast. I have enough HTML knowledge to get by but am miles away to be called an expert. I need to know how I can autoplay music with a click of a button. Its for a popular blogsite called Tumblr (oh c'mon I know you've heard of it). If possible, I hope that there won't be any pop-ups involved. Any and all help is greatly appreciated! (I think this is related to Javascript too ) this site plays music when you are there. how do they do it? I have a tiny flash player(with controls) in a table on it's own html page. It only plays one piece of music. But I need an unusual popup script which I can't seem to find. I want the tiny player (75 x 30) to popup on it's own without all the window (chrome?) surrounding it. I want it to be in either the top or bottom left corner. I would also like it to popup on load but turn off when I go to a particular page that I have a sound video on and then turn off completely when they leave the domain. It is a music site. Can some one please write a script like this for me and how do I get around annoying popup blockers. Hey all, I've built a website for my music and I'm fairly new to all this so bear with me. Essentially, I have two flash-based music players on my site. One is a simple single-track player that auto-plays some background music for the site. The functionality is limited to the user starting/stopping the music and adjusting the volume. The other is an advanced music player featuring a playlist of preselected tracks and allows the user to start/stop music, rewind, fast forward, adjust volume and select tracks in the playlist. This player does not start automatically. My question is this: when someone visits the site, the single-track background music player will start. Is there code that would allow the advanced music player, should it be turned on (i.e. someone selects a track and plays it), to override and actually stop the play of the single-track? TIA! I just added the SCM Music Player script to my WordPress site but now whenever I navigate to another page or news post the URL address doesn't change. The address bar stays static. How can I fix this? Here is the script code which was placed in Header.php within the <Body> tags: ======================================== <!--SCM Music Player by Adrian C Shum - http://scmplayer.net--> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://scmplayer.net/script.js" ></script> <script type="text/javascript"> SCMMusicPlayer.init("{'skin':'skins/black/skin.css','playback':{'autostart':'false','shuffle':'false','volume':'50'},'playlist':, <!-- playlist songs inserted here --> 'placement':'bottom','showplaylist':'false'}"); </script> <!--End of SCM Music Player script--> ====================================== Should I be adding this code someplace else? Thank you! Our website normally plays music onload that can be stopped when manually starting a video using onclick="stop1()". I've manipulated a javascript that detects if the user is a new or return user and plays the video automatically in a popup if the user is new. But, I cannot figure out how to either stop the music or prevent the music from starting at the same time. I've really got no experience with js and am fumbling my way around. would appreciate your help. Hi, I would need your helpful with a code for playing a music or video after 5 seconds launched page. I need a code to say under <body> </body> like autoplay. Regards Bob I hope someone can help me...I need to tweak this code so that background music will play randomly for an unlimited time. Right now, it plays a random song and then repeats it over and over. I just need to have it randomly change songs and keep playing! Here is the code I am using...

Thanks in advance! so i am trying to make a music player where you select a song from a drop down list and then click submit. it then brings up the audio controls with the HTML5 "<audio>" tags and then you can click play and it should work. i am having trouble actually doing this though. the html is Code: <html> <head> <title>Music Player</title> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="popup.js"> </script> </head> <body bgcolor="000000"> <font color="lime" size="6"> <div align="center"> <u>The Mighty Peacock Music Player</u> </font> <br> <br> <font color="red" size="5"> <select id="convert_to" name="convert_to"> <option value="danza" id="danza">Danza Kuduro by Dan Omar</option> <option value="iron" id="iron">Iron by Woodkid</option> <option value="boot" id="boot">Das Boot by Vat19</option> </select> <br> <input type="submit" value="submit" onClick="dispResults(convert_to)"> <p>The song selector is not functioning yet.
