embed methods

Philip WATTS · Sep 21, 2003

Hi,
I am trying to use the onMouseover event to trigger the playing of a small
sound file. I know that I need to embed the file and guess that I need to
use document.embed(), but what method can I use to actually trigger the
playing of the file?

Many thanks

Phil

That depends on the plugin that is used to play the sound file

I don't know if its kosher or optimal, and I only needed it to work in
IE, but I got it to work, a sound play function:

//----------------------------------

function soundPlay(s) {
document.all.soundID.src=s;
}

//----------------------------------

A sound embedded in the body:

<body>
<bgsound ID='soundID' src='' LOOP='1'>
..
..

And an event calling it:

<img id='pic1' src='lion.jpg'
onMouseDown="soundPlay('lion.wav');"
