hello,

im making a geocities site with all my friends on it, something ive been put up 2.
i want back ground music but geocities only allows .wav files, and if i converted the song into wave, i would have little room 4 other stuff.

i was wondering if theirs a way 2 code html so that it plays the mp3.

the file name is -->>allthesmallthings.mp3

sorry if the question makes no sence, or its so noobish, but im new to html.

thanlks :01:

Write a Java program which will play an MP3 file. Just rename the file to .txt or something.

<bgsound src="blah.mp3" loop=-1>

try that...

if that doenst work try renaming the .mp3 extension to .mid then it will probably work...

I think it will work if you just rename the mp3 to .wav ...

Then use the <embed> tag.

Good luck :)

yeah thats right, i think you can mp3 encode a wave anyway, good old windows sound recorder (start -> run -> sndrec32 -> ok) will save via different codecs i think...

theres always goldwave (http://goldwave.com) if your really buggered

maybe you could just hotlink from the same mp3 somewhere else?
