In order to sonify your page, follow this recipe:
  • Make sure you have the Flash player. 91% of the surfing population already has it. Download.
  • Include
flashsound.js in the HEAD section.
  • Create a flashsound object in the
  • HEAD section.
  • Embed your swf file in the
  • BODY section.
  • Create an anchor tag and set the onclick event handler to the
  • TGotoAndPlay() method.

    Here is an example that shows the sounds of kung fu martial art:

    Play the b1 sound

    Play the k1 sound

    Play the k2 sound

    Play the k3 sound

    Play the p2 sound

    Play the p3 sound

    Play the p4 sound

    Play the p5 sound

    Play the v2 sound

    Play the v3 sound

    Play the w1 sound

    Play the w2 sound

    Here is the source code for the first two links:

    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
      <SCRIPT SRC="flashsound.js"></SCRIPT>
      <SCRIPT>
        var mySoundObj = new FlashSound();
      </SCRIPT>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <P><A HREF="javascript://" onclick="mySoundObj.TGotoAndPlay('/b1', 'start')">Play the b1 sound</A>
    <P><A HREF="javascript://" onclick="mySoundObj.TGotoAndPlay('/k1', 'start')">Play the k1 sound</A>
    <SCRIPT>
      mySoundObj.embedSWF("hyperkungfu_32.swf");
    </SCRIPT>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
