Sound in Mozilla

[Mr J]

What code, plugin, is needed to play a simple onmouseover sound in Mozilla

Flash is reliable. WMP9 and QuickTime should both be able to do it. Probably whatever Real Network call their latest bloatware as well. ...oh, and shockwave, of course.


As for the code, I have no idea, since I never do such things.

Liorean sounds as though he thinks you farted at the Duchess's ball. How common!

Here's my coding which makes a gunshot sound when mouse is over a ship image.

<EMBED src="destroy.wav" hidden="true" autostart="false" name="soundfile2">

<!-- Unspecified JavaScript error is reported if the mouse is over the image when the page loads. Still works OK. This script corrects.
//-->

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
var shotcount=0;
function playgunshot() {
if (shotcount > 0) {
document.soundfile2.play();
}
shotcount ++;
}
</SCRIPT>

<p align="center"><a href="#" onMouseOver="playgunshot()"><img src="ship11.gif" width="497" height="125" border="0"></a></p>

Thanks for the replys, that code is similar to one that I have tried and works ok in IE but in Mozilla I get no sound at all.

Do I need a plugin of some sort.

Apparently I have Windows Media Player7 running on Windows Millenium, Mozilla version 1.6
