no problem Bill... The solution is just to keep playing with it, and
recoding it in different ways until it works... if my suggestion
helped, then I think it probably has got something to do with the way
the Sound.play function is executing... from what you say, i suspect
that it's not clearing the previous sound out of cache before loading
the next one - I've seen something like that before but not in
Rails... you could try something like this to see if that's the case:
def play_correct_sound(input_value)
if input_value = 'good'
correct_sound = good_sound
elsif input_value = 'bad'
correct_sound = bad_sound
else
correct_sound = nil
end
Sound.play(correct_sound)
end
good luck
