Hi there,

I have attempted to embed music on my portraits gallery:

http://www.richpics.co.nz/gallery/7676298_k5d7P#516153118_AZhHH

using the following CSS:

#Portraits {display: none;}
.gallery_7676298 #Portraits {display: block;}

Footer section:

<div id ="Portraits"> <embed src="http://8362117026852469574-a-1802744773732722657-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/richpicssite/Home/LouisArmstrong-YouAreSoBeautiful.mp3" width="70" height="18" autostart="true" loop="true"> </div>

The music plays in Firefox but no on/off button is displayed. The music does not play in IE7. Is anyone able to help and tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

Rich

RichSorry, I wasn't able to get it to play in any browser. :(
Even using the direct url to the audio file, it wouldn't play. Could be the file isn't set to be public. Is there a permissions setting to make the file public?

Great catch...thanks.

I had set the google site to private. OK, so now the music works on other browsers. However, I still cant seem to see the on off switch. Any ideas?

Thanks

Try editing the width and height tables:





<div id="Portraits"> <embed src="http://8362117026852469574-a-1802744773732722657-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/richpicssite/Home/LouisArmstrong-YouAreSoBeautiful.mp3" autostart="true" loop="true" width="70" height="18"> </div>







I'm not getting your music to play for me in FF or IE

The music is playing, I just cant see the quiktime buttons... so annoying.

I tried putting the code in the header section and can definitely see the box for the quicktime player in IE7, but it is just blacked out.... I think something in my CSS is conflicting.

Any ideas??

Thanks
