Hello,
I was wondering if someone could show me how to setup a Jscript which will delay a sound embeded in my web page. What I want to do is to have the page start and like 1 minute later a sound to play. I would appreciate any and all help from the forum.

Thanks

Have a look at the window.setTimeout() function. If you pass in a code string and a ms timeout, it will execute the code after the specified time.

e.g.

window.setTimeout("PlayItAgainSam();", 60000);

My friend,
Thanks for responding. Hey I was wondering how do I reference this code in the body? Something like:
<body onload="playitagainsam()">

or


<embed src="" onload="playitagainsam()">


Anyhelp?

Hey guys Im a total dufus this past week, I think I am losing my head, and I can not do anything right it seems. So can someone please hold my hand on this one and show me how to setup this script. So far "anyideas" helped me out by scrapping me up this script:


<html>
<head>
<script>
function wait1minute()
{
//wait 1 minute = 60000
window.setTimeout("Play Sound", 60000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="wait1minute()">
<embed src="mySong.wav" ?????????>
</body>
</html>


Now to you this is simple to me it is like duhhhhhhh. So please just show me how I would make the above script delay the embed src for the alloted time as is above as well.

Sorry to be so slow, ;)
