okay, I am building a website for a band and I want to build a audio player which will have three or four songs and will be on every page ( fyi it is a HTML website) was going to build it with flash button then I thought there would be a problem due to every time the user goes to a different page than the flash audio player would then restart. This problem happens on http://www.cometogether.com.au/www.cometogether.com.au/ct3/
whenever the user goes to the new page the audio player automatically restarts.

I was wondering if there is a way around this? if anyone can help me out that would be great.

thanks

You could use frames, and the player would stay put

Hi I am new to the forums and been a lurker here on Kirupa for about a year or so. I want to addressd your issue this way. Do you know javascript? If so, you can attach a javascript cookiehandling script to track the player values as cookies or with a session id and tell the player to be ignored dynamically.

The other option is to load the swf player dynamically with load vars and write a function that will continue the playing on each page with an if /else statement. I will work on something and let you know what I come up with.

That's about the extent I can help as of right now.
