I am not a native HTML
programmer, so please don't jump all over me about this simple question.
I have an image that, I am displaying using the following code:
<img name="track1" src="images/track1.png" width="180" height="180" border="0" id="track1" alt="" />
I want a sound file to be played when that image is clicked. I can make the image a button, but that is messing up the layout of the page for some reason.
I am okay with using any player, but the only thing is that I do not want to display an intrusive player. I just want the user to press the image and hear the music. If he presses another image, the current music needs to stop playing, and a different sound must be played.
Please help! Thanks!
First you have to use jQuery.
You may create some <div>
in your page having some id, for example;
<div id="wrap"> </div>
.
Then, in your JavaScript, when you want to play the file, just add
$('#wrap').append('<embed id="embed_player" src="audio.wav" autostart="true" hidden="true"></embed>');
the whole code looks something like;
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.7.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function() {
$('#track1').click(function(){
$('#wrap').append('<embed id="embed_player" src="audio.wav" autostart="true" hidden="true"></embed>');
});
});
</script>
<img name="track1" src="images/track1.png" width="180" height="180" border="0" id="track1" alt="" />
<div id="wrap"> </div>
Hope this helps.
