HTML tag for adding Background music to the
webpage |
The following tag can be used to add
background music to a webpage:
<embed src="musicfile.wav" hidden=false autostart=false loop=false width=150
height=100 controls=console>
If autostart is set to true, then the sound file plays automatically when
the file is loaded otherwise the user has to initiate.
If loop is set to true, audio plays continuously without stop otherwise plays only
once. We can also set a number to specify the number of times it has to play like
loop=2.
If hidden and autostart are set to true, then the sound file is played automatically
without user intervention.
<embed src="musicfile.wav" hidden=true autostart=true loop=3>.
Most of the browsers support this tag. |

Better to use one anti-virus software
at a time |

anti-virus software in your computer rather than using multiple ones. Because installing
more than one at the same time may sometimes cause conflicts in the computer. So,
it is better to uninstall the current one before installing the new one. But you
can have one or more Spyware checkers. |
