Public bug reported:
Ububtu gutsy gibon with the most recent updates.
Firefox version 2.0.0.12.
I build some websites where "background sound" is being played on several
differend pages.
fter some "Googling" I found a piece of html code that plays background sound
in IE as well in Firefox. See code below:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") {
document.write('<bgsound src="Music.mp3" LOOP="false">');
}
else {
document.write('<embed type="application/x-mplayer2"
pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/"; Name="MediaPlayer"
src="fill place.mp3" AutoStart="true" ShowStatusBar="0" ShowControls="0"
ShowDisplay="0" volume="1" HEIGHT="1" WIDTH="1" loop="false"><br>');
}
// End -->
</script>
This works OK in IE. However in Firefox background music plays correct only
when started 1 time on the first webpage that is opened.
If one jumps to and fro between pages with background music the "download
cursor style" keeps there forever. You have to restart Firefox to solve this.
My suspision is that Firefox starts downloading the player-plugin 2 or more
times after each other thereby overwriting itself.
