On www.fountainchurch.org why are there sound errors?
pandy
What errrors are you talking about? Do you mean the sound quality?
Frederiek
Nah, surely she means the validator errors. If she uses <object>, everything will be ok.
minidiapolis
yes, I menu validator errors
minidiapolis
What do these errors mean


... /graduation.mp3" autostart = true hidden = true>
^Error: there is no attribute AUTOSTART for this element (in this HTML version)

Line 145, character 66:
... 3" autostart = true hidden = true>
^

Since EMBED is non standard none of its attibutes exists. Either do what Frederiek said or just accept the errors related to EMED. As you saw earlier, some of them can have another cause than the non-standardness of EMBED, so read them before you ignore them. happy.gif

I thought I replaced embed with the object tag. either way the page isn't displaying correctly
pandy
Yeah, so you did. Where was I then? I heard the sound but there was no player. wacko.gif
minidiapolis
for some reason in IE there's no sound, and there's a gap between the top of the page and the header. it only puts the gap when I add the sound code
minidiapolis
hello?
Frederiek
Hello!

Again, read http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/object.html thouroughly and you'll be able to get the code to validate and to move the header image to the top.

Although, you might have to use an <embed> tag as well as <object> anyway. OBJECT seems not well supported by browsers. With an <embed> I hear the sound, but not with an <object> alone (Safari, Mac). So you might have to live with some validation errors, as Pandy said.
