How to arrange a song without any interruption when the visitors visit the website and click some buttons to see certain menu. The problem I’m facing now is the song in the website need to start all over when we change to the other menu. Do I need put the song in a different place? But how?

But how? My website is actually like this,

When the user press any button from the menu, the website will load another .swf movie that linked from in the website host provider. (the song is actually, same as in the other .swf file) So everytime when the visitor click the button the song will start as the liked .swf file comes out. Because i have put the same song in every of my .swf

I used the loadMovie concept to link every .swf file for my website is this the correct way?

If you are loading external swf into a container mc, then put a song **only** intto ur main timeline.

Claudio actually like mmm…

I’ve put the sound in every swf file…  
in dreamweaver i just put a swf file and it will link to the other swf file that also contain the same song…by loadMovie so that is why when it is loded the song will be played once again but i do not know how to make it separate between song and the documents. iwant it to be like when you click to the other menu the song is still hearing and also can be loaded by itself without disturb any other swf file

Let me see if i get it:  
You are using one main movie and loading the ecternal content into a movie clip placed inside main movie. Right?

So, put the sound only into main movie timeline.

Ok, im not goin to post an example, the file would end up really big…  
How are u loading ur external content?  
is it with loadMovie(“yourmovie.swf”,“content”) ?  
If so, just drag and drop ur song into the first frame of ur main movie timeline. And whenever an external content is loaded, ur song will keep on playing.

Dats it.
