How to add a sound clip to a link or an image in mouseover

[Rommel]

I need help. I would like to add a sound clip to a text link and to an image link, that is when the cursor hovers over the text or the image that sound clip will play, and on mouseout will automatically stop i.e. a sort of sound effects for text and image buttons.

Hi there,
checkout the ZIP-file below. I removed the original one posted here.
After unzip click on index.html in the HP folder.
All the best,

Hi,
there's one thing to mention: When the page is loaded for the 1st time, there might be more or less a little delay until your hear something, depending on the length of the various soundfiles you wanna use.
I have downloaded some cellphone files and reduced their sizes to make them load faster. See THIS ZIP-file too:

HoverSound.zip

thanks again... that solved the sound delay issue. what software did you use to compress the size of the sound files?

Hi there,
I'm using NERO with a plugin for converting into MP3s. This contains all kinds of possiblities depending on the soundquality you wanna go for.
Cheers,

Fantastic solution, Roland!
To hide the menu object, you can simply assign the "visibility"="hidden" in the "special styles" (tab "various"), after that, you can manage the hidden objects using the object explorer.
...but... there's no way to assign a sound to a label linked to a page?
Thanks
