Good Morning,

I am running FP2000 (soon to upgrade).

Can anyone advise me how to set up my web page so when I
run my cursor over a hyperlink, or alternatively click a
link, it plays a subtle sound effect of my choosing?

While on the same topic, what sound effect file tpes are
best suited for this job? Presumably a compact file type?

Cheers

Code one of these attributes inside the <a> tag:

onMouseOver="document.all.music.src='gong.au';"
onClick="document.all.music.src='gong.au';"

The most widely-supported formats are .au and .mid. And
right, despite the season, I wouldn't recommend using
that MP3 file of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite.

Yes, something short and sharp - maybe a 'blip" or "bleep" type sound - and you'd
need to preload them, so the site doesn't have to access the file from the
(remote) server everytime it is requested on the mousedown or mouseover action.
With it preloaded, it is in memory, and much faster.
 
Thanks guys for the replys. Forgive my ignorance, but how
would one go about preloading them?

Cheers
