Hello DP users. How can I have an mp3 file playing in the background of my site with an option to turn it on and off. Thanks
flash is the best option, but you would have to have a complete flash site for it to work and not stop on every page. Other than that you can have a little pice of flash hiden away on your index page with a stop mute and reset button.
just a word of caution - while this is easily accomplished with flash, I would highly recommend you have it not autoplay, but ask the user to turn it on if they want to. The reason why, many users will be listening to music or on Skype, or watching a video while surfing, and they won't look for that tiny mute button you may or may not put on your site, what they will do is close it right away and be annoyed. If you could give one first impression of your site to your user, I would imagine it wouldn't be the feelings of annoyance, disgust and interruption. Think twice before having any sound autoplay.
