kiddo:
If you think music is appropriate for your site, them by all means do it. Let your customers and results guide you as your site evolves.
There is lots of good technical info available here, but don't be so easily swayed by others opinions. Do what YOU want.
Oh, and BTW, I always immediately leave websites run by web-masters who bend so easily to other peoples will. :wink:
Hi kiddo,
I want to add background music to my site and I know a lot of people say no and I like your advice, so I want to try it. I was wondering if you could help me?
I have the Flash Music Player on my site, but I don't know how to get the music to play?
I'm trying to follow the instructions below from premiumbeat.com:
http://www.premiumbeat.com/flash_resources/free_flash_music_player/mini_flash_mp3_player.php
I'm not sure about Step 3
Change the value in red to suit your needs.
so.addVariable("soundPath", "song.mp3");
Where it says song.mp3 is that where I put the name of my song?
And I'm not sure what they are talking about below:
This path can be relative or absolute.
Sample ablolute path:
so.addVariable("soundPath", "/files/song.mp3");
In this case the mp3 file would be located at https://www.site.com/files/song.mp3
Sample relative path:
so.addVariable("soundPath", "song.mp3");
In this case the mp3 file would be located at https://www.site.com/song.mp3
Which do I use "Ablolute" or "Relative" and where do I put them?
I'm kind of a newbie and step-by-step instructions would really be helpful. I need to know what files I need to go into to make this player work.
Thanks!
