Making my own webpage got a question, Usin Easy designer

[Ecin]

In easy designer it lets me put my own HTML coding in so I am wondering...how can I (using html) make it so that whenever I visit my page there is some background music playing?

[iamien]

ok thanks but i still have some questions....


<BG SOUND.....>

should they be in capital letters like you posted?

and "my file" should that be off another site or off my cpu?

[iamien]

doesn't have to be cas. i use cap so i can discern my HTML fro mtext easily/
th sound fiel should be in your webspace

CAPS or no caps doesn't matter but W3C XHTML 1.0.1 standards I believe say it shouldn't be, I'd have to check up on that though... Yeah, the file should be in your webspace...

yeah, like he said, personal preference really.... but try to make sure you stick to it..... so if you call it BODY in one case, dont call it body in the next. If you learn css or javascript (which happens to be case sensitive)or anything like that you will know what i mean.

Also, be aware the the <bgsound /> element is part of Internet Explorer. It isn't defined or supported by W3C, but by Microsoft. So browsers like Opera or Mozilla might not react corectly, and might not support it at all.

In any case, background sound is kind of like the <blink /> and <marquee /> elements. Avoid them because they will annoy your visitors.

Know what you mean, it's really bad when it takes 2 hours to find an accidental capitalazation in a variable that causes your program not to work >=(

heh heh So true.

"What do you mean 'Object not found'? It's defined **right there**!"

Let alone the Perl Death web page. "Sorry, but you're an idiot and wrote a script that's broke." And you run "perl -cw" a million times and get "Syntax OK". :D
