Indexhibit Support

Hi I was wondering how I add sound when you scroll over or click links within the site. Like those little clickyness ones certain sites have. :)

These are probably flash sites... I do not know any easy way to achieve without using flash, and this would become quickly complicated. Think of this as an advanced modification. If you are up to it, please let us know how it goes.

assuming you want to have clicking happen in only certain areas, and if you figure out a way to preload the click sound, and finding a way to play the sound across browsers reliably without fail, you could write a tiny javascript that would play the sound on click... but i for one find these to be fairly annoying sounds, and they are not accessible or friendly. most of the time, as Antoine says, that stuff is flash. And if you are paying attention to what this community is about, feels to me that we are all trying to not go that way, the overbearing heavy site way.

I recommend staying away from clicky sounds, personally. there are so many other ways to generate interest and interaction with the user.

Hi,
If you have some jquery knowledge (it's not difficult and there is many website that give you an introduction for designer to it).You can use this plugin : http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/sound/ to achieve it.

I'm currently exploring sounds via javascript for a project...haven't used this yet but it looks promising:

Did anyone test this?

anyone stumbled across any tricks for this?

I've been looking all over the web for any snippets of code that might have been passed around - but no luck.
