I run a family website and have a sound question. I would like the visitor to be able to move their mouse over a picture and a sound is made. Any help?

This is not HTML, it is javascript. But i know how to do it :)

This is an old example I used somewhere on these forums:

<html>
<head>
<title>Javascript Sounds - by Savvy</title>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
</head>
<body>
<bgsound id="mysound" loop="infinite">
<p onmouseover="playsound('mywave.wav')" onmouseout="stopsound()">mouseoverme</p>
</body>
</html>

Place this in the <head> section of your web page:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

</script>

Use this HTML code:

<bgsound id="mysound" loop="infinite">
<img src="image/file.jpg" alt="Some Image Caption" onmouseover="playsound('mywave.wav')" onmouseout="stopsound()">

If you want to do this for an image and some text, get both to work by adding these as HTML attributes:

onmouseover="playsound('mywave.wav')" onmouseout="stopsound()"

In all sections from before, replace file paths (such as 'mywave.wav' or "image/file.jpg") with your paths. bgsound is an old element, and may not work in some broswers.
