I'm looking for an alternative to front page. The mechanism to play sound
on a page does not work for front page. I've posted this problem several
times here - and have never received any response.

I can only conclude that the adding music or sound functionality for front
page does not work.

With this in mind - is there an alternative product to use for website
development other than front page?

I need something that will import my current web and then I wish to develop
what I have with a different product.

Any alternatives - please let me know....


Thanks,

Bob

You'll certainly have to provide more information than "the mechanism to
play sound on a page does not work for front page"...if you can give some
details, someone might be able to help you.

Otherwise, one alternative to do what you are asking would be to learn html
and use notepad to create webs. ;-)

go to html view in frontpage and add this code:

<BGSOUND SRC="welcome.au" LOOP="-1">

Change the "welcome.au" to whatever file you use for you
sound...sound.mp3, sound.wav etc. The loop number tells
the browser how man times to play it.

Did you try any of the suggestions given to you on May 15th? Seems you never replied to any of the posts.

Just wondering.

Notepad works quite well. Doesn't have as many bells and whistles, though.

1) Which version of FP are you using?
Microsoft Front Page 2002

2) What type of sound files are you trying to use?
".ram" sound file

3) What steps have you tried so far?
Nothing, really, just set it up in front page using the page
properties.
The HTML generated by Front page looks like this:

<bgsound src="Paul.ram" loop="-1">

Even with that HTML included - NO sound plays...

When I double click the sound file (Paul.ram) - it plays fine...

Is Real Player set as your default media player?

Media player IS the default player for ".ram" files.

It is not the default for other sound files (i.e. .wav, .mp3) because I
prefer other software to handle these file types....

Thanks,
Bob
