Website Music Controled by PHP?

[jamesadrian]

Background music in a website is made possible with things like this:

<embed src=“http://www.yoursite.com/musicfile.wav” autostart=“true” loop=“true” hidden= “true”>

However, it would seem that something more is needed if the volume is to be controlled or musical selections are to be made by clicks on the web page. Perhaps there are other options that could be built into the music features of a website. I am wondering if there is a way to use PHP to add functionality to the above html code.

I am new to PHP and don’t have a good sense yet of what is practical, much less a sense of what makes for good PHP script design. Any discussion of this general problem and ,for immediate use, the volume control would be very much appreciated.

Very sincerely,

Jim Adrian

Use Flash or Silverlight, controlling the music requires client side technology.
