30 second delay for sound - 6/7/2004 13:43:57
Does anyone know how do the implement a 30 second delay before the welcome soundbite that I have on my homepage plays.
Here is the code:
<EMBED SRC="sounds/welcome.mp3" HIDDEN="" AUTOSTART="true" LOOP="false" width="75" height="75" border="0">
I know I could put in 30 seconds of silence in the MP3 file but I'm hoping that there is an easier and more elegant solution .
I had someone else do the original coding and I don't know much about ASP.
Thanks
Rick Yurick the

Try this:
The syntax is:
<META HTTP-EQUIV=REFRESH CONTENT="time-delay; URL=page-url">
where "time-delay" is the delay in seconds before the new page is loaded, and "page-url" is the address of the new page. This tag goes in the document header, between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags. For example,
<META HTTP-EQUIV=REFRESH CONTENT="10; URL=http://www.mywebsite.com">
would take you to the page at www.mywebsite.com after a delay of 10 seconds. The "page-url" can be the same as the current page, or different. It can be on the same server or on a different one.

Cliff,
Thank you for your reply. It's an interesting idea. I could have a silent version and a sound version of my homepage and direct them to the sound version after 30 seconds.
I might try this idea, but I think I will wait and see if anyone else has a simpler solution.
Rick

I think that some javascript may be easier if you know javascript. There is a command - window.setInterval()
It sets a delay for a specific function.
Syntax
ID = window.setInterval("funcName", delay)
Parameters
funcName is the name of the function for which you want to set a delay.
delay is the number of milliseconds (thousandths of a second) that the function should be delayed.
ID is the interval ID.
Example
intervalID = window.setInterval("animalate()", 500);
If you know the javascript command to play a sound file then this should work very well. Sorry I do not not much javascript so I can't help any further.
