Hi, I have a great program for inserting mp3s (music) into a web page.
here are the instructions:

Sounds--Music--and more

Custom recorded message

If you would like to record a personal message to be played on your site- you can use the voice recorder in Windows -Accessories. It will be saved as a wav file which you can then upload to the server via the FTP Manager. You can then reference it with a hyper-link like so;

For example- Click

Here-to hear a short wav file I produced using the Sound Recorder.

This is would work for a song also.

I prefer to use this method - Copy the script below and then open an HTML box and paste it inside. Close the box and re-size to about 1 inch long by 1/2 in tall. This will produce a small player console that the visitor can turn on/off (see below). Position it on the web-page where you want it. Then put text above or below it to instruct your visitor what it is and what they are supposed to do with it.

<embed src="

yourmusic.mid"

width="145" height="40" autostart="false" loop="FALSE">

</embed>

**Note: To make the music play automatically the parameter is Autostart="TRUE" You can put "FALSE" instead of "TRUE" so the person visiting your page will have to click on the play button for it to start.

Again- this will also work for songs or any type music file.
Music on web-page with visitor shut off button:

Embed music on the web-page that loads and starts when the page is brought up and supply a small shut off button for the visitor. Copy the script below and paste in HTML box. Re-size to 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch and then place on page where you want.

<embed src="

yourmusic.mid"

width=70 height=25 autostart=true repeat=true loop=true> </embed>

You would obviously replace the

"yourmusic.mid" with what ever music or wav file you wish.

**For this tutorial- the the auto start feature has been shut off
**MORE OFTEN THAN NOT (IN MY OPINION) MUSIC THAT STARTS AUTOMATICALLY ON A PAGE IS ANNOYING. I ALWAYS APPRECIATE IT WHEN THEY PROVIDE A WAY TO TURN IT OFF.
***Note: Mp3's are not allowed to be posted on the VH server unless you are the Artist.

great bit of code - thanks!

any chance there's similar code that means the player DOESN'T have to have QuickTime installed?

Thanks :)
