FP is making it impossible to insert a sound file on my htm pages (greyed
out). It will allow it on my dwt but that puts it on all pages. I want
different sound files on every page.

You have to create a editable region on your dwt so that you can insert a sound file on each page.
You do realize this is going to slowdown page loading and also may stop some, from staying or
re-visiting your web site if they can not turn off the sound.

I have created an editable region called sound on the DWT but it still wont
allow me to insert sound files. I right click on the page and select Page
Properties but the field remains greyed out.

You may have to add the code manually to the pages in Code View.

Create a new blank page with no dwt added, and then add your sound, then you can copy the code and
insert on your other pages, as needed, etc.

Bummer. Too complicated.
FP is supposed to be easy.
DWT is supposed to make it easier.

I added the code manually and it worked in my local copy. But the sound does
not play when published on the net.
Can be seen at cloisterscommunity.org

You need to remove all spaces from all file and folder names..

Plus you must allow time for the file to be downloaded (2,953 KB) before it will start to play.

Are you waiting for the file to be downloaded, it is 2.88 MB in size, so could take a while based on
your internet connection speed.
