How do I make music play on ALL my pages?

[Guest]

I would like to add one song to loop continuously on my website. The help
instructions say to add the music to a page of the website, but I want it to
continue to play as people look through my 6 page site. Right now, its on my
home page, but as soon as I click out of that, its gone. How do I make it
continue?? TIA!!

not a good idea.....this will turn visitors away, not attract them.
put it on every page.

but there's no way to play it continuous in the way I'm think you mean.

Like the background music track of a movie or something.

You can only put background music in individual pages, which means the file will
start over when the next page is loaded.

Hi Carol,

One way to do this is to construct your site in frames. You would then have
your music in the frame-set page..and it will play continuously as people
navigate your site.

Make a POP under window (like a pop up window) and use an "Onload event" to
Pop Up the window (but it will be under the regular window)
Then put the music in that window.. The music will continue as long as the
window is open..

Just a Thought

Windows XP SP2 will block "onload" popups by default.

Hi Carol,
you need to keep that home page open -either open other links in
new windows, ( a bit messy) - or set the home page up with Frames - eg
- a top frame perhaps, and that's where you put the music, and all
your links to other pages open up below, in the main page, the top
frame opens and never changes.
email me if you want more info or a helpinghand with it,i could offer
thoughts on how to set the music up.

Forgot about that...
But there are only ~260 million people using XP that it wouldn't work on
(and everyone with pop-up blockers).. Ooouch

the popup window using "onload" may also be blocked by some firewalls.....

Well (if were my site and I wanted music) I would give them the choice.
To hear music while surfing the site "click here" With a link to a small
pop-up window and the music...

Always nice to have a choice...
