Can I play music on my home page

**flygirl** · March 16, 2006

Hi Guys and Gals,

Hope one of you gurus can help me!

I'm running FrontPage 2002 and I want to put a button on my home-page to play music when selected. I've got as far as playing background music but that starts as soon as the home-page opens. I'd like the surfer to have control. I know that whenever I've opened a music file on the web, my browser goes to Media Player so, if I may be so bold as to ask:

(a) Is it possible to have a button that, when pressed, plays a .wav file (just once and not on a loop)

(B) Is it possible to keep the home-page visible to the surfer without going to Media Player

I apologise for the number of 'is it possibles' but I'm a newbie at this. The HTML page just looks like a jumble of ancient Egyptian (can't spell that hyroglyphics word - if that's right, I take that back) so a step by step guide would be most appreciated and turn me from mad to ecstatic.

Hope someone out there can help

My personal e-mail is flygirl757@hotmail.co.uk (please note the .co.uk).

Love

Michelle

This should work in theory this is a HTA so you can see how it works.

Save As DemoMusic.Hta

All you have to do is place the button name play and it script in your web page.

You must also have add the path for the music file. Try the HTA first to see how it works.
