Adding Background music to the site

[daveh_cdn]

Hey everyone.

I have included a simple EMBED tag in my footer code in my smugmug.

The problem is that everytime the page is re-submitted (click on an album, picture, whatever) the track re-starts from the beginning.

Is there a way to stop this? OR, is there a way I can use Javascript to detect if they are at my main page only, and if so, play the music only there??

Thanks a bunch,
Dave.

With all due respect - putting background music to one's site is a sure way to scare away practically everybody. It may sound cool for the owner/family, but for a total stranger who has an attention span of a few seconds to decide whether to stay, go deeper or press the back button, the music favors tha latter like 99 to 1.

Yeah, it's prolly wrong. It's ambient chill. If it could play the entire time, it'd be sweet. I don't have a page for professional reasons. It's full of my climbing shots for friends to look at.
