moon Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 I'd like to be able to upload music so that the visitor can get an instant replay, like this-http://www.musart.co.uk/muso1.htmDoes anybody know how to do it ? I think that sitting about waiting for downloads, or waiting for sites to load files, is pretty naff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nellie2 Posted September 27, 2003 Report Share Posted September 27, 2003 I thought that you had to stream the music to your PC to hear it anyway. So your connection and specs would determine how 'instant' the music was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moon Posted September 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2003 Do you get instant sound from the menu on the link above ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nellie2 Posted September 27, 2003 Report Share Posted September 27, 2003 ok.......... have looked into this and I am no expert so don't ask any hard questions. I think you need to embed your music files using this tag.<EMBED src="http://www.your sound file goes here.mid"> Now, you can add additional commands to the tag to control the output and appearance of your sound file. Here are some common commands you may wish to use: width="144 "Tells the browser how wide you wish the sound display to be. Input a number in pixels. The most common width is 144. height="60"Tells the browser how tall you want the sound display to be. Input a number in pixels. The most common height is 60. autostart="true"Instructs the browser to begin playing the file automatically once it has been loaded on the page. You can set this value to true or false. The default is false. loop="true"Instructs the browser to play the file over and over again for as long as someone is on that page, or until the user hits the stop button on the display. You can set this value to true or false. The default is false. hidden="true"This command tells the browser to hide the sound display so people viewing you page don't see the sound display with the control buttons. The sound plays as though it were just in the background somewhere. You can set this to true or false. The default is false. I also found this site which has some info about putting sound files onto sites and embedding them etc.embedding audio file info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
