Code to add continuous music to site without frames

[Guest]

Hello FrontPage Gurus!

How can you add background music to your site that will play continuously as
each link is clicked??? I have added a song on the home page to play but each
time a link is clicked, the music stops playing as the new pages are viewed.

I did NOT use frames on this site and really don't want to have to rebuild
it. Surely there is a workaround. HELP!!!! Is there an HTML CODE I could add
to fix this problem? I've searched through the help menu but it never
addresses it. My desire seems fairly simple - one song playing continuously
while each page of the site is viewed. Is this a pipe dream or can it be done
in FP?????? I know some people don't like music on sites but in this case,
it's necessary.

Please help me with some detailed instructions!! I'm pulling my hair out!!!
LOL

You can use frames
or
If you like the music to play while you serf the web
Get " Spawn " from Jimco Add-ins for FrontPage and install it, it's Free
http://www.jimcosoftware.com/addins.aspx
and insert the player in the popup window.

The "bad" thing about popups is that browsers can block them.....so you're
back to square 1.

I though that one of things that Jim Cheshire (of JimCo) has stated about his Spawn is that it does *not* get blocked, I think
because it is not an automatic pop-up as such, it is more a function called by clicking on an element (e.g. <a href ="....."
onclick="spawnJimcoPopup(....)" > etc)

Thanks everybody!! I'll try several things and see what works. The add-in
sounds interesting. I'm willing to try anything! Keep those suggestions
coming. One Internet site mentioned using FLASH to do it. Any ideas on that?

Only that you have to buy Flash or a similar program named Swish. Using JavaScript is free.

Easily create and edit pop-up windows. Pop-up windows created with Spawn
will work with most pop-up blockers including the one that comes with
Windows XP SP2.

If a pop-up blocker blocks a Spawn pop-up, the link will still be displayed
in a normal browser window.

All of the pop-ups on this site were created with Spawn.
