Hi--

I have a link that has an mp3 sound as its href:

CODE
<a href="sounds/genealogy.mp3" class="track track-default">this is a link</a>


Unfortunately, I also need that same link to go to a part on the site (href=#dombo) so that the sound plays on that part of the site.

Does anyone know how to accomplish this? I am imagining it would be with javascript, but honestly, I do not know.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks...!

You can. But I think you should keep the URL to the other page in the href and let JS do the mp3 bit (it's better that way if JS isn't available).

Just add

CODE
onclick="location.href = 'http://example.com'"

Do I need to set this up in some way beforehand with javascript? I have tried this particular approach and it does not seem to work...

Many thanks!
