I was wondering to myself the other day, "some websites, when you hover over one of their links, make a sound like a bleep or something. Wouldn't that be good to have". So, I want to know if anyone knows how to do it! biggrin.gif

Do you use Dreamweaver. In that program, we can make the browser to play a sound when user move their mouse on an object (there're many other events to choose from).

Another way to so if to use FLASH. This way is easier and should make fast loading site too.

I don't really like sounds in websites, but this is my personal taste and opinion, I think that people should be allowed to choose to use sounds or not.. smile.gif

Use Javascript for that kind of stuff. Here's some code for you:

CODE
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
// Script Source:  www.CodeBrain.com

var audioOn = false;
function audioDo(doWhat,toWhat){
  if(audioOn){
     var A = eval('document.'+toWhat);
     if (A != null){
        if (doWhat=='stop') A.stop();
        else{
           if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape') A.play();
           else{
              if (document.M == null){
                 document.M = false; var m;
                 for(m in A) if (m == "ActiveMovie"){
                    document.M = true; break;
                    }
                 }
              if (document.M) A.SelectionStart = 0;
              if (document.M) A.play();
           }
        }
     }
  }
}

//-->
</script>


And here is a link to where it came from get the kit and you can play around with it till you get what you want, then all you need is to get a bunch of sounds to go with the events.

I used to do that with static web pages but am more into PHP and so forth. but hope that gets you started.

This script can be found in its entirety right at this link to sound kit
Look Almost all the way down the page and find the Essential Tricks category and look for the JavaScript Sound Download Kit and you should have more than you need to accomplish your task.

Before you add sounds to your links, think about your guests.
Do they like sounds?

You can ask them with a Poll on your website! smile.gif
