Default how can I play a sound when a person mouses over a picture?


whenever I try to add a different DHTML effect, the only option I have is for
it to change its formatting, there has got to be a way to play a sound when a
person rolls the pointer over it.

Not with Frontpage. Have you tried interactive buttons in FP 2003 (or "hover
buttons" in FP 2002/2000) they should provide a way to play a sound "on hover"
but since java is not commonly supported in Windows XP and since Java is a
client-side technology, that is not a good idea(many users may have this turned
off, and Java does not come with WinXP.

You can accomplish what you want with Javascript, try www.javascript.internet.com
or www.hotscripts.com.

Alternatively Google for "hover buttons", "rollover buttons", "rollover image
script with sound" etc.

You will have to hand edit the javascript for the dhtml and add an onmouseover event to trigger the
sound.
