Ok, to start off, I have a general knowledge of html...not a novice nor an expert. With that said, I am developing a site built in html with flash elements, for this band I work with. I have developed a mp3 player built in flash and I can't seem to get the player to play continous throughout the site. It keeps reloading the song everytime someone clicks through.

Do I need to build the site in PHP? I thought about using framesets but thats pretty archaic. Any good solutions to someone who is not an expert coder? Here is an example of what I want to do functionality wise. I greatly appreciate anyone's help on this.

Well you could build the entire site in flash and have the mp3 player in it. That way the page would not refresh.

You could put the mp3 player in a frame or iframe like you were saying.

You could have the mp3 player in a popup window seperate from the main window.

You could refresh certain areas of the page with AJAX and keep the mp3 player from refreshing.

Cool site, your easiest fix is going to be keeping your footer in a frame, and have the mp3 player in there.
