Having a bad week? Cheer up. Friday is almost here.

www.Countdown2Friday.com - Your official countdown clock to Friday.

I would, especially, like to know if the page loads properly in other browsers. The only ones I have tested are Firefox and Safari.

Also, if anyone knows, I was wondering what the function was to turn off an embedded music file that is playing in the background, so that a user can click a button and turn off the audio if he/she wanted to.

Thanks in advance.

You would need to embed a shut off button in the html code of your music file. But if your file is placed in the <head> of your html document, visitors have no choice but to listen to the music since it would play automatically.

Here is an old trick of mine with an example at web-zonez.com: I hope it helps!

Create a very small IFrame on the page (in my case it is located on the left panel, below the menu) & two html pages : musicon.html & musicoff.html.

File musicoff.html has just the title & artist with a "PLAY" button, no music embedded. This file is targeted to the IFrame when the main page initially loads.

File musicon.html has the title, artist with a "OFF" button, and has the music embedded.

When the "PLAY" button is clicked on (musicoff.html) the musicon.html is targeted to the IFrame, and the music starts playing. The music can be stopped by the "OFF" button, which targets musicoff.html to the Iframe.
