| Have you used the Audio tool for inserting the .WAV file into your page? Just tested with the Audio object and all work correctly. |

Oke, I used the multimedia tool to insert the wav file and that didn't work. The audio tool does the job allright.
But then it goes wrong.
The screen says: onMouseover, Play, Audio1
So that looks oke, but when I export the page and try it in either IE of Firefox nothing happens when I go over the image, no sound is played.
The statusbar says something like:
http://www.lynxcardesign.nl/site/template.htm#
Like it some sort of link.
If I test it locally or upload the file to the site, it doesn't matter.

When I look at the code of the htm page in dreamweaver it says at the picture:
<a href="#" onMouseOver="jsPlay('Audio1');"><img id="Picture3" name="Picture3" src="files/template_picture3.png" width="155" height="29" border="0" alt=""></a></div>
Is that right? |

Yes it's right; the problem can be in the jsPlay function.
In order to play a sound file you must have the corrected plugin installed in Explorer and Firefox.
When I've tried to play a sound in my home pc using DHE it works good. |

Hmm, I googled for jsplay plug-in but that didn't help me any further.
Is it possible for you to put a demo page online so can I can take a look in the source code? |

Hello Toon,
I made an example for you which you can view here
http://home.tiscali.nl/gggev/test.html
It's a simple mouseover which creates a nice sound when moused over I think this is what you are looking for but I am notsure.
Only strange thing about my example, maybe Davide can explain this, is that the first time you go over it with your mouse there is no sound. Only after the second time the mouse over works. I haven't got a clue as to why.

Thanks for the example but I tried your page on 4 different machines and guess what... no sound whatsoever.
When the mouse is over it the statusbar is: http://home.tiscali.nl/gggev/test.html#
I'm getting frustrated! [2 H:)][2 77:H][2 ?:-|] |

On my computer it works.
Maybe you can check in IExplore, Extra, Internet Options, tab Programs, plug in's. Be sure your players are switched on
Bye,
Londen.
P.S. I don't know if IExplore English uses these words, I've got a Dutch one. |
Bye,

Hello!
I tried with FireFox and the browser alert about "Quicktime player plugin needed..!", so I think the problem is some plugin for play music instead of browsers, machines, etc.. |

Quite strange though that it is so difficult to get this (simple) thing to work.
I'm even considering to find out if it can be done by playing a hidden swf file with a sound in it.
But again, this shouldn't be so difficult [3 cens] |

| Maybe the Javascript function I'm using is not the better way to do this trick. If anyone finds a better way to play a sound please let me know. |

I have no idea if it is better but here:
http://home.tiscali.nl/gggev/sound.html
you can see how it's done in Adobe GoLive CS2.
I doesn't work because I haven't set the sounds but if you look at the source Davide, you might be able to figure out what it all does and means.

I've seen the sample and it uses exactly the same method used by D.H.E.
The javascript play function. |
