How do I add background music for the cart
 
I am trying to play an audio track when the cart is first load up.

I've placed
<bgsound src="http://www.phillteredproduce.com/audio/intro_sound/noice-our-first-track.mp3" loop="0">
in the meta.tpl and it works fine except the audio plays again everytime the page refreshed.

Is there anywhere I can add that html code so it will only in the begining when user first enter the site ?

thank heaps

You could put it in welcome.tpl but I would advise against putting music anywhere on your site. Theres nothing more annoying then going to a site and having it take over your mp3 player. I for one close the page and go elsewhere. Wont make many sales if that happens

If you're going to place music on your site make sure it's a proper streamable format using something like flash. An MP3 loading is going to kill your site download speed for 56k users :wink:

Oh man, do you really want to drive your customers away that quickly? :lol:
I suppose it's better than a MIDI though. ;)
I know I can't stand it when a site starts blarring music through my speakers without warning. If it's a band's site, then that's fine--because I'm looking for music and their music in particular. But if an ecommerce site starts playing christmas music...

Oh come on you kill joy! There's nothing wrong with hearing jingle bells while you mess up your credit card details for the 5th time :lol: :wink:
