Song Only Heard on My Computer

[doug2935]

I am making a website for my uncle's 50th year HS reunion, and have inserted HTML code to play "Rock Around The Clock" in the background. I can only hear it on my computer (since that is where the files reside) no other computers can hear it play. I uploaded the song as I did with all my other site files through the ftp program, but it doesn't work.

Any thoughts, from anyone?

The site is www.franklinhigh1956.com. Please feel free to check out my source code and let me know where my problem is.

Thanks,

Doug :confused:

I hope this is the correct forum!

From the source code, it looks as if you have the path to the music file pointing to its location on your local drive rather than to where it resides on the server.

<bgsound src="file:///c:/Documents%20and%20Settings\Owner\Desktop\Franklin% 20Reunion%20Website\happydays-1974.wav" loop="-1">

Jess: So should it be ftp instead of "c?" I tried that but it didn't work. Do you know what the thread should read?

Thanks,

Doug

I meant to say, ...what the path should now be"

It should be fixed now. The wav was in the same location as the index file so I changed it to read: <bgsound src="happydays-1974.wav" loop="-1">

As it is, I don't hear the song playing (I'm using Safari on a Mac). So it's better to use the embed tag, which is supported by most browsers. Try this:

<embed src="happydays-1974.wav" autostart="true" hidden="false" loop="true"></embed>
