Playing random sound

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 21.2004

Hi,

I have this code:

[code=php]<script type=”text/javascript”>
function playrandom(){
var a=Math.round(Math.random()*12-0.5);
var b=[“A1″,”AS1″,B1″,”C1″,”CS1″,D1″,”DS1″,”E1″,F1″,”FS1″,”G1″,GS1”]
document.getElementById(“thenote”).src=b[a]+”.mid”;
}
</script>

<bgsound id=”thenote”>

</head>

<body onload=”playrandom()”>
</body>[/code]

When you open the page, a random sound should play (either A1.mid, AS1.mid, B1.mid etc).

Thanks,

Neil

@neil9999authorMay 21.2004 — Don't worry, this line was wrong:

var b=["A1","AS1","B1","C1","CS1","D1","DS1","E1","F1","FS1","G1","GS1"]

@dr_johnMay 21.2004 — "Webmaster in a nutshell" doesn't list id as an attribute of <bgsound>

It's a head element, not a body element and I think only body elements have an id.

Just a thought.

Success!
