Adding Sound Files to Your Web Page

 

Auto Play Sounds

Quicktime sounds (.mov) can be used for auto play sounds. That means the sound plays as soon as the page loads.

 

Adding Auto Play Sounds

Dreamweaver

1.   Place the sound file in your media folder

2.   File Menu: Insert: Media: PlugIn

Properties Box

 

3.   Properties Inspector: Parameters

Enter

controller - false, ("true" causes a media player to appear)

loop - false, ("true" causes the sound to play over and over)

autoplay - true ("true" causes sound to play after the page first loads)

Properties Box

Test your page.

 

Check to see if your browser Preferences will let you select which media player will handle sounds. Most browsers, now, have default media players.
