Looking for a mouseover sound script (solved)

Question

Hi,

I'm looking for a a mouseover sound script (for button). I plan to use wav sound but can be other sound format.

Those I have found on the net are not compatible with new browser version. Especially need to work in Firefox Browser.

I have found one on Jquery site but it require Flash.

I prefer using only javascript if possible.

Thanks

Answer 1

Sorry, but JavaScript cannot play sound. You'll find it easiest to work with Flash since it's so commonly installed in browsers. JavaScript can interact with SWFs through the ExternalInterface ActionScript API.

Answer 2

You can try something like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
function EvalSound(soundobj) {
var thissound=document.getElementById(soundobj);
thissound.Play();
}
</script>
<embed src="mysound.wav" autostart=false width=0 height=0 id="mysound" enablejavascript="true">

Then, to play on mouseover of a link, add the code:

<a href="#" onMouseOver="EvalSound('mysound')">Move mouse here</A>

Answer 3

I was not able to find a way to make it work under Firefox, so I decide to use Flash at the end.
