OK, here's a trick if you want music at your Coppermine Gallery. I see many, many posts by users who are struggling with this one. It's so simple, it's not even funny  and this is really not that invasive (later I will try to create a dhtml to open and close the player [window]). Put your start page in an iframe. Here's the basic code, you can play with all the parameters to get it to where you want it. Mine's pointing to a new age streaming radio station on the net (nice for viewing images anyway). <html> <head> <title>Online Photo Album</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/yourtheme/style.css" /> </head> <body bgcolor="#000000" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" scroll="no"> <div align="center"> <table width="100%" height="90%"> <tr> <td align="center"> <iframe src="index.php" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" ALLOWTRANSPARENCY="true" scrolling="auto" name="myInlineFrame"> Your browser doesn't seem to support "frames"</iframe> </td> </tr> </table> <object classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" id="WMP1" Style="border-style: none; border-width: 0; margin: 0" width="100%" height="60"> <param name="URL" value="yourmusic.mp3"> <param name="AutoStart" value=false> <param name="AutoRewind" value=true> </object> </div> </body> Name it index.htm and you can still access your gallery with a folder. This is simply embedding the WMP ActiveX control below the iFrame. Now, when your vistor navigates around your gallery, the music continues throughout and of course, they can stop/pause anytime. Your visitor has the option to play music (or not) upon arrival. I personally wouldn't want it to start auto, though it can be done by changing that parameter. And it doesn't have to be on the bottom; I thought mine looked better this way. The music itself could be a playlist, one file, or a url to streaming media (lots of them out there). I hope you find this useful - enjoy! |

Nice trick! At the moment I listen to the sound of your website ... Some questions: What about more than one mp3? How can I point to a radio station of my choice? For example http://www.radiopilatus.ch/sound/low.asx. What about two radio stations? How can I build in "your trick"? Do I have to change the index.php or something else? Sorry, I'm a php-beginner ...  My gallery: http://www.dorfschule.ch/copper/index.php |

Yes hama, you're exactly right as far as using the radio station URL. As far as how you implement, your gallery is in a folder and your start page is index.php.....take that code above, puit it in Notepad, edit your particulars (theme, add your radio station URL) and that's it. Save it as index.htm and put it in the same directory. Your server should default to the index.htm file auto (unless you've manually configured otherwise). Just put your link like so My gallery: http://www.dorfschule.ch/copper/Same as: http://www.dorfschule.ch/copper/index.htmUnderstand that search engines get confused with iFrames. So you'd have to configure your meta tags and indexes differntly if you're concerned with that. |

Thanks, I did it and it works with "Radio Pilatus". I think it would be very difficult to change between to radio stations or between some mp3's and one or two radio stations ... Or do you know a solution? The gallery is now in a frame. Is it possible to set the frame border to real 0? At the moment there is a little bit space ... --> http://www.dorfschule.ch/copper/index.htm (I will change the menu-links on the top later.) Anyway, thanks for the great music-trick! hama |

Yeah, a dropdown (or something to that effect) would be nice to pass to the iframe. I'm sure it can be done, haven't tackled that yet. Your site looks good as far as border (using IE) - you may have fixed it. You could also try frameborder="0px". Although, I haven't tried that either. Glad you liked it  More stuff to come. |

Thanx rphMedia.. worked just out of the box :-)
I didn't want the 'player' part at the bottom of the windows, - so changing the width and height of the 'player-part' of your script (to 0) keeps the music, - but basically removes the player. I just wanted it to produce a non-looping sound at startup, - and it did.
Thanx, once again.
Kim Igel.

Justttt, what browser are you using? And Kim, neat trick But be aware that some people don't like music (uncontrolled) on a site. It used to be an amazement, but nowadays, it drives users away, especially if it's a large audio file. Just something to think about - alwayz give the option. You could make that thing as small as a mere non-obtrusive "play" button in a corner someplace for control. Totally up to you though. |

yeah, - I don't like it either, - but it's for a site I did way back for selling used cars and they'd like a 10 second V8 engine intro sound.... so before visitors realise it has no play-control buttons, - the sound will be gone.... But I do agree with you.

Yeah, a dropdown (or something to that effect) would be nice to pass to the iframe. I'm sure it can be done, haven't tackled that yet. That would be nice. 50% player at left bottom / 50% dropdown box at right bottom with different radio stations.  One idea I have is to put some links in anycontent.php, for example: --> Start gallery with radio 1 --> Start gallery with radio 2 --> Start gallery with mp3-1 --> Start gallery with mp3-2 --> ... I know it's a "beginner idea" but changing rphMedia's code is something for profs.  \ |

I found another solution for the "music-anycontent.php". It needs two files, anycontent2.php and player.php. It works on my website (except two litte problems). --> http://www.dorfschule.ch/copper/index.php --> ("Sound :-)", at the bottom) P1: At the moment it doesn't run with firefox. P2: After choosing a radio station the website is in a frame and I have a little black space at right and at the bottom. After a refresh the space disappears. These are the two scripts (maybe you find something to modificate): anycontent2.php: <?php

hama, Remove the scrollbar from the body of player.php (scroll="no"), it's not needed and may correct the "refresh" problem Excellent work! |

Removing the scrollbar doesn't help. "<iframe src='index.php' width='100%' height='100%' frameborder='0' scroll='no' name='myInlineFrame'>Your browser doesn't seem to support 'frames'</iframe>";
Here's a printscreen of my problem: |

No, remove the scroll from the body tag in the page, not the iFrame.

This solution works for the gallery part. For the other parts of my website (Home/Forum/News/...) the design problem is still there from the moment I start the player. But I think this isn't a problem we can discuss in this forum. So thank you for the help and have a good time. hama |

hey all, thought you may be interested in my implementation of a music player which works on the entire site Simply have a link that reloads the site into a frame set which contains the player. This means that you can use the site as normal and still have the music playing Also means that you wont upset the search engines as you have to actually click and load the frameset, leaving the rest of the pages un affected. I am working on the player to use more formats instead of just WM so i can use realplayer etc. Also plan to make the played look much neater, this is just a rough implementation at the moment. The entire site is currently UNDER CONSTRUCTION!!!! here: http://www.seekoutproperty.com/And once complete will be made live on here: http://www.sunnymonkey.com, http://www.sunnymonkey.co.uk, and http://www.uk-nightclubs.co.ukSo you should be able to find it on at least one of those addresses :-) Let me know what you think, I know it is very simple, but it works. :-) Oh and check out the gallery as I am modifying that quite a bit as well, so stick some music on and browse the site :-) Look forward to your comments TFFN Dave |

That's a good idea and works fine! The only problem is that with your solution I have to reconstruct my whole website. \ First I'll try to solve my frameborder problem. If I can't I'll take your one. P.S.: I'm happy that you inserted swiss radio stations into your uk clubbing information hub ...  hama |

You sure you have to reconstruct? I wouldnt have thought you needed too >? maybe a few small mods? Anywho, you know better than me, its your site afterall :-)
I have left the stations in there as I am listening to them, and even though the HUB is uk oriented, music itself is worldwide :-) Variety is the spice of life etc :-)
Anyway, glad you like it, bit of a way to go before the site is complete, but I have done all that you see in just 1 day (I started yesterday) so i hope it wont take long until completion.
I also have a much larger collection of images, nights out, categories etc, but that will not be imported until I make the site live :-)
Again, thanks for the comments and I hope that this all evolves well with the coming future ;-)
