How to unable background sound

I put background sound with tag <bgsound src=''> in a page, and like to
give the visitor an option to unable it. Can this be accomplished? If
yes, what's the tag or command? Thanks.

Any sound on a web site should be disabled by default. Remove the
proprietary <bgsound> element, although luckily it will only work for
certain browsers (and mine isn't one of them). Add a link to the sound
as you would any other file, <a href="...">List en to my sound!</a>.

Please disable your sound!!! There are only a few things
in the web which are as annoying as web site sounds!!!

Hi My background images are not appearing on the page. I am unsure why. I can see them on my on pc, but nobody else with the same computer configurations can see these background images. We are using XP, so I thought there may be a problem caused from this. Thanks Kez

I'm trying to write a page that allows me to change the background midi that's playing. I've been going crazy consulting Google Groups, and coming up with ingenious solutions, some of which kind of work in some situations. I'm quite prepared to implement a number of solutions simultaneously and browser-distinguish to select the right one, but it's hard even to find the criteria that decide what works in which browser. I'd be grateful...

I've embedded a midi file as background sound in my "index.html" which links to other pages on the site and I want the the same background sound to play on all pages "without interruption (and restarting)" when going to the other pages. Can anyone give me some insight as to how this can be done? Appreciate any help offered. TIA Peter

I'm looking for some code that will allow me to have a random wav file played every time someone refreshes my home page. I've found some that will allow 5 different wavs (and it wasn't scalable), but I've got 100+ wavs that I'd like to use so I need some code that can scale. Any help would be appreciated.

I have just tried to attach a background sound with on/off button to my movie clip at frame 1 of the main Timeline. Flash Movie: the movie will keep on replaying until a viewer clicks a button. (frame 1 to 7) Problem: the background sound plays again on top of the ancient one. And as the movie starts again, one more piece will be played, and so on. I've tried to use different approach with action script but no luck, Please help.

I want to have a background music to my simple app and a buton which plays another sound, but when I press the button the sound from it interrupts the background sound. I tried with SoundPlayer and the native PlaySound function but the results were the same. Any ideas how to have a background music and a button sound without using DirectSound? Can you provide me some snippets?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
