Cross Browser Play Sound Button
Sep 7, 2006
Does anyone know how (and if it's possible) to create buttons or text that will play a sound on mousedown/onclick/mouseover?
I've tried the examples on this page - http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/mark/audio/play.htm#, but the only ones that don't make my I.E. browser crash don't work in Firefox.

I have built an admin area for employees of a business. Once logged-in, if they sit idle for 5 minutes their session will be killed ( the time may vary depending on the employee ). I do all this with php but don't really know much about javascript.
What I would like to do is start playing a small sound repeatedly when the employees session is about 30 seconds from expiring. ( this will give the employee time to click on a link to keep their session alive )
So when the page loads, I would like to pass a length of time in seconds to a javascript. So if the employee can sit idle for 5 minutes, that would be 300 seconds. Minus the 30 seconds that I would like the alarm to be playing for which gives us 270 seconds. ( I'll pass this number to the script with PHP, the script does not have to figure this out... just to be clear. )
So I'm looking for something like this:
- On page load, tell javascript to count down a specific number of seconds ( 270 )
- When the countdown reaches 0, start playing sound file repeatedly.
Sounds easy enough but I haven't been able to find anything like this yet. The only ones I've seen actually display the countdown which I don't want. I want this to count down invisibly. Oh and it should hopefully work in both IE and Firefox.

I know this may sound stupid, but for the life of me I just can't seem to figure out how to code a sound being played every lets say 300 seconds.

I don't have a clue what i'm doing with this and don't expect someone to just give me the code if it is actually possible (although it would be nice). I've created a site and in the admin area the page will update and tell me if there is a new message from a user, I have this page automatically refreshing every 5 minutes and wondered if it's possible to play a sound file if the term "unread" appears anywhere on the page?

Using JavaScript, I require a code that allows me to play .wav sound files randomly and automatically on page start-up, I also need them to loop as they are drum beats. The plan: to load my web page and hear a random drum beat that loops continuously. I need it to be compatible with most, if not all Internet browsers (Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera are crucial) and to state what sound file is playing on the page (allowing me to identify the looping drum beat/sound file), and if possible to provide a link to the actual sound file for download.

I am coding a page that has 6 buttons on it, from which one is the correct button (the target). I want to try and implement the following:
1) when a wrong button is clicked, the file "wrong.mp3" is played. It is less than a second long.
2) when the correct button is click, the file "right.mp3" is played. It too is less than a second long. The page then redirects/reloads. This is the code that I can't seem to get to work:

I am using a picture as a button for my site and when you click the picture it brings you to the main page of the website. My problem is that I want the button to make a sound when it is clicked on. I figured that Javascript would be the best language to use since I know nothing about Flash.
<html>
<head>
<title>Testing buttons</title>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function playSound(soundfile) {

I wrote the following small HTML page, trying to play a sound in Firefox 8 and Internet Explorer 9. The button and the <a></a> link work fine, but calling from the <script></script> tag does nothing. Does anybody know, what can be wrong, and what I can do? I'm sorry, you have to supply the oef.wav file, since I can't upload it.

I want to play a repetitive sound, and have a user click on a button each
time it plays (say 5-10 times) and measure how far off he is from the
sound each time.
The only way I know to play a sound in JS is bgsound, and I know how to
loop and pause, so as to do the 1st part. I haven't figured out how to
then test the delay in response. Since some of the responses may also be
*before* the sound plays by some milliseconds, that also compicates it.
My real question is, can this even be done in JS, or should I be in PHP,
ASP, or do you have another suggestion. I'm thinking it needs to run
client-side so there are no network delays, and the results would be
reasonably accurate on different machines. I could easily write it in VB
but I don't want them to have to download anything. I'd just like it to
run from the page.

Is it possible to play a small sound clip when the user hovers over a link? Usually the company I work for would use flash to do this but we have been asked to create it in HTML/JavaScript.

Is there any way to resize an iframe dynamically to the height of its content that works cross browser and works when the iframe content is on another domain than the main page (I have access to both pages, so code can be put in either) Also, it must resize when links in the iframe are clicked (ie when a new page within the iframe is loaded)

Between the head tag of html:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js-bin/silent_refresh.js"></script>
In a javascript named silent_refresh.js: (make sure the script is in a folder called 'js-bin')
window.onload = doLoad;
function doLoad()
{
setTimeout( "refresh()", 60*1000 );
}
function refresh()
{
window.location.reload( false );
}
The page will refresh every 60 seconds - Just alter the 60 to whatever time you require.

I've got this code that needs to load a .wmv file - the client is adamant about using .wmv files and not Flash files - and the client insists that it use variables for the width and height parameters.I've now got the code working correctly in IE (it's always worked in Firefox) but I've just noticed that it's not working in Safari. I'm sure it's got something to do with the <object> but am not sure how to fix it.I've tried including the safari object code for wmv files and then using an if/else statement to only load the object code for safari but my javascript skills aren't that great.As it stands right now, both Firefox and IE try to load the quicktime object after they load the wmv movie object.

After 1.5 years of writting my website I installed NS. It's JS works alot different to IE's, so it looks like I've got to write most of my site again!! [img]images/smilies/frown.gif[/img]
NS will only read 1 external JS file, which is abit of a nuisance as my site has a JS file common to site, another for the subfolders of the site, and the page's JS included with the HTML.
I'm trying to put all of common functions into one JS, but some of the functions have large amounts of text assigned to them. I'm trying to import the text using XML sheets as needed, but having a bit of a problem with the line
Code:
xmlDoc.childNodes[i].childNodes[2]
where NS will only read 1 array of childNodes. How do extract xml with NS's JS?
