Use Dreamweaver Behaviors to Play sound, music on Rollover, on Click or on Loading the Page

Sample: Click Here to Play Sound

Learn how to Play Sound in 2 steps

• Create a link for the sound to be played on Rollover or on Click. You need to make a simple text link with '#' symbol.
• Then add a behavior to the link. Open Windows/Behaviors and click on the '+' symbol in the Behaviors Panel. Click on 'Play Sound'. Browse to find the sound you need to play and click OK.

Note: If you need to play music on any event, go to the behaviors panel and select another event from events drop down menu e.g. to play music on Rollover then you have to choose onMouseOver

Javascript Code

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_controlSound(x, _sndObj, sndFile) { //v3.0
var i, method = "", sndObj = eval(_sndObj);
if (sndObj != null) {
if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape') method = "play";
else {
if (window.MM_WMP == null) {
window.MM_WMP = false;
for(i in sndObj) if (i == "ActiveMovie") {
window.MM_WMP = true; break;
} }
if (window.MM_WMP) method = "play";
else if (sndObj.FileName) method = "run";
} }
if (method) eval(_sndObj+"."+method+"()");
else window.location = sndFile;
}
//-->
</script>

Dreamweaver generates the following code that embeds the sound file within the page

<embed name='CS1022563046202' src='sound.wav' loop=false
autostart=false MASTERSOUND hidden=true width=0 height=0>
</embed>

This can be included towards the end of the page.

HTML Code
