JCwolf, your page uses Microsoft proprietary commands which will not work in any non-IE browser. Replace those with HTML standard commands and all will be sweet.

That is, try replacing:

Code:
<bgsound src="Thor's temple.wav" loop="-1">
with:
Code:
<embed src="Thor's temple.wav" type="application/x-mplayer2" autostart=true loop=true height="0" width="0">
You should really use the "object" command, but "embed" will suffice for your purposes.

Not sure if clicking on Enter was meant to do anything, but it doesn't.

I'm from the old school of programming and thus I still manually write HTML, all in trusty Notepad (Personnel Files in SH3Cmdr are all created "on the fly" from raw code). IMHO the best way to avoid the hassles caused by proprietary commands that "certain" editors use.

@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.

And there I was thinking Aus and English were pretty much the same

Will leave the programming to you " experts " HTML or otherwise
Cfg altering is as far as I go

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.

Default Welcome back

Good to see you back in the forum. Hope you can bring back to us your elegant work that was lost.
Your site loads faster (that was a real irritation before) but no sound and the 'Enter' button is not 'hot' - but you know that. The site does seem to hang up loading the last item.
Buen suerte, amigo.

Just some more feedback, the transition effect also works only in IE, hence why it loads so fast in FF (the effect is ignored and the page simply loads as normal).

BlueVoda right? I think it has limited code editing. If so, and assuming you are not using a VodaHost account, then open your HTML page in Notepad and change the code to look like:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Main</title>
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=1)">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Created by BlueVoda">
<style type="text/css">
div#container
{
   width: 1024px;
   position: relative;
   margin-top: 0px;
   margin-left: auto;
   margin-right: auto;
   text-align: left;
}
body
{
   text-align: center;
   margin: 0;
}
</style>
<style type="text/css">
img { behavior: url("pngfix.htc"); }
</style>
</head>
<body background="Main.jpg" bgcolor="#000000" text="#C0C0C0" vlink="#40E0D0" style="scrollbar-face-color:#68838B;scrollbar-arrow-color:#7FFFD4;scrollbar-3dlight-color:#000000;scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#000000;scrollbar-highlight-color:#40E0D0;scrollbar-shadow-color:#40E0D0;scrollbar-track-color:#7F7F7F;">
<embed src="Thor's temple.mp3" type="application/x-mplayer2" autostart=true loop=true height="0" width="0">
<div id="container">
<div id="bv_Image1" style="overflow:hidden;position:absolute;left:232px;top:104px;z-index:0" align="left">
<img src="Logo.png" id="Image1" alt="" align="top" border="0" style="width:560px;height:384px;"></div>
<div id="bv_Image2" style="overflow:hidden;position:absolute;left:461px;top:613px;z-index:1" align="left">
<img src="Enter.png" id="Image2" alt="" align="top" border="0" style="width:103px;height:37px;"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Then save and upload.

OK, I just did some research and learnt that BlueVoda saves webpages in an encrypted .bvp format meant exclusively for uploading to VodaHost. It gives no option for the user to view the source (OMG, I can't believe that; how does one optimise it then?). I guess my comment about it being limited was an understatement!

All I can suggest that you try is take the code that I posted above, paste into Notepad and save it as <file>.html where <file> is the name you called the page in BlueVoda (most likely "index") and then use any FTP manager to u/l it to your host, replacing the current version in the process (maybe even the BlueFTP that's included in BlueVoda may work?). There's no indication that VodaHost accepts only BlueVoda files so I can't see why it wouldn't work. But then again...

I have saved the code thanks mate,But I have backup options and optimising also, have also a place called control panel were I can check all the files that ar or were part of my web site...I have been searching for the Index ( as you say) html file and its there the only thing is I can not download it or copy it or edit it... Thought they allow Html editing with Front page there are a lot of things that I never used it...and have to asked them if I can do...I can also upload via a private ftp...so I guess i can somehow edit the html code..I just added a button for the music..can you check it and see if the music works now with firefox and if the button also works ...Thanks for the end my friend..great help...
