Trouble with midi background sound

[Dan]

Does anyone know what is causing FP2000 to be "grayed out" on the General
tab of Page Properties in the area for inserting background sound? Is there
a way around this? I want to embed a midi file to run continually through
out the web site's pages, without restarting the song each time a different
page loads..

1. Tools | Page Options | Compatibility tab, set browser all to custom.

2. It is not possible to have a sound file play as you switch pages, unless
the user click a link to load the file or you use a frameset, where the
sound file is embedded in the actual frameset page, then as long as the
frameset is loaded the sound will play.

Also keep in mind that users should have option to turn off the sound file,
as they may not want to hear it every time they visit your site. This type
of option will eliminate embedding it.
