    Hi, I am using this sound on my clients web site
    http://www.hark.com/clips/kztvdfmykz-horn-truck

    The issue is, it repeats and they dont want it to repeat. Is there anything I can do to the code to alter it so it just does HONK! HONK! once and not repeat the whole time>
    Thanks!~

    Use programs to cut out the "honk honk!" that you need, then use that on the website instead. :confused: Not sure of any apps off hand though.

    The file doesn't repeat, it's just 8 pairs of honks. Use Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder to chop it to what you want. (You can copy a piece, make a new file and paste it in, or you can cut everything you don't want.)

    There are programs that will record what comes out of your speakers and save it to an audio file...Use one of these to start the recording, click play on that website/sound clip and hear one pair of honks, then stop the recording. Should do the trick.

    Audio Record Wizard will do that for you. The free version will record up to about 3 minutes, so it's enough for your needs.
