You can copy the code from below. (Use CC&P if you've received the summer upgrade) Pay attention to where there are quote marks and where there are not....this is important. Also, if a line is longer than the width of your screen, do not hit return/enter key when it gets to the edge. Let the text editor break the line for you. Generally, the rule of thumb is to only hit return/enter key after a > sign if you need to.

I. Place the code for the scrolling text &/or the two-sounds (located at the bottom of this page) in a homepage file. You can embellish upon it with any background tags, other HTML that you know, etc. if you wish. Call it, for example, twosound.html [you can obviously choose your own name].
II. Then, in your sig box, add this code:
Put in the correct URL of where you stored your "twosound.html" file. Make sure you also have the opening <html> and the closing </html> tags in your sig box. Remember, nothing can come before the opening <html> tag, not even a space, in your sig box, or e-mail body if you use it there. And VOILA!!! You should have both two sounds in your sig plus a scrolling status bar if you wish....tadaaa!
And VOILA!!! You should have both two sounds in your sig plus a scrolling status bar if you wish....tadaaa!
NOTE: You should be aware that although you will see the scrolling text in your status bar when you are writing your email, it will not be visible to the receiver, so I've been told. This will be viewable to some extent on your homepage however. I'm sure there is a way around this and will include it here when I learn of it.
<html> <!---Scrolling Status Bar Code---> <head><title></title> <script language="javascript"> var i=0; var msg=""; var m1="..Text string"; var m2="..Text string"; var m3="..Text string"; var m4="..Text string"; var m5="..Text string"; function playtext() { setTimeout("playtext()",250); window.status=msg.substring(i,msg.length)+msg.substring( 0, i) if(i++==msg.length)i=0; } msg=m1+m2+m3+m4+m5; playtext(); // </script> <!---Two Sounds Code---> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content=#;url="http://URL of second sound" loop="infinite"> </head> <body> <bgsound src=http://URL of first sound> </body> </html>
<!---Two Sounds Code--->
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content=#;url="http://URL of second sound" loop="infinite"> </head> <body> <bgsound src=http://URL of first sound> </body> </html>
I. Place the code for the scrolling text &/or the two-sounds in a homepage file. Call it, for example, twosound.html [you can obviously choose your own name].
III. Put in the correct URL of where you stored your "twosound.html" file.
Before you use your two-sounds code, make sure you time the length of the first song/sound to the second. Two minutes equal 120 seconds, etc. You might want to add a few seconds to ensure the first song doesn't "knock the second one outta the box". Replace the # sign in content=#; to the length of the first song/sound (the number of seconds). It will be how many seconds you want the second song/sound to wait before beginning. I don't know how to or even if it is possible to have all of this loop/repeat. The "loop="infinite"" doens't do the job. I've left it in to show where it would go in other circumstances, etc. You can seek more experienced help on that aspect.....happy webbing!!!
Below is a copy of my file yoda.html When I do not want two sounds in my sig, I "turn yoda.hml off" by just changing "yoda.html" to "yodax.html" There is no "yodax.html" file so nothing plays. This is how the HTML line would look in my sig: <bgsound src="http://members.tripod.com/~ebrian/html/yodax.html file"> This is the yoda.html HTML: NOTE:To place two sounds on your homepage, it is not necessary to place the following code in the head section. It can be placed just about anywhere in your code (although placing it in the head section will avoid any error messages upon validation). This is a bit different than the sig two-sounds code rule.
