Hi, you guys! Its 18 months since I've checked in so y'all must have helped me some along the way - Thanks!! Here's a nice new problem. I've tried two different forums but there seems to be on one out there - here's how it goes:- With the script below (courtesy 'webmonkey') I managed to place six separate musical items on my new site at various places in the text (which I invite you to visit at www.americanodyssey.bravehost.com/odyssey.htm)
It works beautifully except for one thing - they all start playing at the same time! Alternatively I have to stop each of the others and restart manually "when I get there"! Is it possible to vary the script and modify it so that the next midi file starts playing as the previous one finishes? (only one of the files is shown here, of course).

Don't know code but I think you have to change the true to false on the autostart.

Hi Hewee!! Many,many, sincere thanks! It does a good job and stops them all playing at the same time which is great and much better!! You guys have never let me down yet!
All the best!

Great to heard it worked.
I knew you could have trouble with too many opening from starting on there own because we was posting them him a couple years back in a thread here and had lots of trouble and it effects is not the same for everyone either because of the code, plugins each person has. But we found out it was not good to have more then one play on it's own.
