@JC, if I may suggest, having a sound file loop endlessly without giving the user the ability to stop it may make some users unhappy.
Hey there...I didn't finished the page yet...Mr. JScones...As I said above, It's still under construction,Exanples:Enter button doesn't work cause I'm still making the restante pages,so until I have a main menu page done that button will not work...As for the music, as in my previouse site page I added a button to stopor pause the music, thought there are loads of sites that you simply haveto ear it cause there is not such option I always thought the way you do, addinga button its good some ways but in others its just another code to imputor a button to make if you use a web editor...thought I am adding it soon for now its what I have done...Thanks for the feedback, but you must think that noteveryone haves the knowlidge or knows out to Make HTMLcodes and make that way a web page from scratch...In fact I am using a editor, the same for 3 years and its a very good one easy to use and specialy for me that don't havethe skills on the web building that you have ...Site is building so features will be apearing softly untilI finish it...As for the music doesn't be eard over FireFox browser Ican not do more then what I add, and the fact is that the diference of the last music file in Wav format was very big so I add to go back to Mp3 format...The wav was 21 Mb and the samemusic in MP3 was 4.5 mbs....Be patiente and all will be done, Thanks JSCones for the imput ...and hope everything is well with you,,,
Read back a few more posts and you will have your solution. In your editor, simply view the source code and replace the current line with the new one. Tweak the height and width settings to show buttons if you wish.

I was not having a go at you, merely stating that HTML editors have a habit of "masking" problems that unsuspecting people easily miss. And while you state that your editor is good, it's obviously limited, as it only supports one browser. Thus anything you create with your editor will potentially not work on FireFox, Opera, Safari, Google Chrome etc etc without some manual tweaking. If you develop web pages, it is a good idea to have a basic understanding of what goes on "behind the scenes" and not rely on an editor to get it right for you. You don't need to know how to code every line, just enough to know what your editor's limitations are and how to overcome them yourself.

Good luck and good to see you back.
