Hi all,
Is it possible to insert a background sound in FrontPage 2000? I know it's possible with FrontPage 2002 but I need to know if I can do this with FP2000. The reason being that I want to include background music in my webpages that I am using FrontPage 2000 to edit.
Thanks in advance,

Hello majora,
I own FP2000 and I remember making a background sound when I used it (I can no longer use it as it will no longer run on my computer[for some reason]).
It would probably be in properties maybe even have a button in Tools or Format or some such.
It also has a repeat thing where you can tell it to repeat a certain number of times or forever.
If you cannot find where it is, use Help.
Sorry I couldn't give you a more straight-out answer, but you should be able to find it in Help.

Once again I don't understand why you are bothering with the WYSIWYG interface and not going straight to the source.
The feature is here:
(while normal tab is selected)
Format->Background->General (Tab)-> Location (Under Background Sound)
FP 2000 inserts an IE only tag, <bgsound>, a better approach, IMO would be to use an <embed> element with CSS using the display: none property.

If you are going to use a midi sound or perhaps a low kps mp3, use the body onLoad event
ie:
<BODY onLoad= "yourfile.mp3 or midi or mp2 or what ever your music is" loop="true">
// if you say loop="false", it plays once
//remember that this will continue to loop as long as the individual is staying on that page, if the use goes to a different page, and then comes home,, the process starts all over again. I suggest using instrumentals,, this is not near as annoying as the same vocal over and over and over again
I think.....therefore..I code

For the love of god, please have a button or some checkbox available where the user can turn the sound off should they not want to hear it!! =)
Take care,

I am developing a webpage where I want to have a streaming background sound attached to the opening page but I want to be able to provide the ability to turn it off. I am running FrontPage 2003 and I cannot find anything that tells me how to provide a turn off facility. Do you know how to do so?
Thanks
Ian
