    Default I can't get a sound to play

    Hello, this is my first post here, I have a problem,
    My website on Reptiles & Amphibians ([url]http://www.reptilia-amphibia.net[/url]) is
    about to get a whole lot better because I want to add amphibian voices onto the
    frog pages.
    To do so I want to make a small gif with a music icon or something and then
    have a rollover image in a different colour, as well when the mouse is over the
    gif the sound starts, and it stops if you go off it. like on this page
    ([url]http://www.karch.ch/karch/f/amp/ha/hafs2.html[/url])
    BUT it doesn't seem to be working, do I need to save the sound in a certain
    format? I've tried Quicktime, mp3 and m4a.
    Please HELP!!!

    Default Re: I can't get a sound to play

    HI! I would really recommend using Flash for images with sound. Although you
    could make it work, it will not be cross platform and will not play on
    everyone's browser/machine. If you must then try doing a Google for "Java
    script roll over sound" and you will certainly find a script to do just
    that.

    But Like a mentioned you should look into Flash in your spare time if you
    plan to do a lot of things like this.

    Good luck. :)
