I would like to include two urls in a hyperlink.

Specifically, I want to start a playlist and then immediately move to another page containing a gif animation that matches the audio. I find right now (in IE) that streaming the audio from the same page prevents the gif from animating, whereas moving to the gif page after starting the audio works just fine.

So, is this double link possible? Could you demonstrate?

http://www.mydomain.com/pages/movie.php

Thank you very much.

No, not with HTML. A link can have only one target. You'd have to open one of the windows with JavaScript.

Doesn't sound like something that needs to happen. Maybe someone knows how to fix it if you post the URL to a sample page.

Thank you very much. Although I am a programmer of various softwares, I am fairly new to web design and have been avoiding JavaScript in order to avoid as many security flags as possible. So I will look into another way to accomplish what I'm after.

If the audio and video are supposed to be syncronized, then why not deliver them both in the same media file? Most video formats support sound, don't they? And Flash is popular, too.
