    Another Way To Play Jukebox Throughout Slideshow.

    Maybe this has been posted before. 

    While surfing around, I found some code that when placed in the Shozam index.htm page
    will allow a user to "Click for Music". The click will open a player window that can be minimized.
    This method allows for music to be played through the whole Shozam experience.

    All info is here: http://www.primetimebulldogs.com/testaudio/index.htm

    Click the link below Shozam

    Re: Another Way To Play Jukebox Throughout Slideshow.

    It is possible to set up a player and play music seamlessly during the whole Shozam experience including slideshows. I'm not a coder, I found this code and thought it might provide another solution for those who want the music to play throughout the Shozam viewing experience. There may be others on the forum who can help if you have coding problems from file path setup. In general, all files (Shozam and Audio Player) need to be in the same directory. I use Coffee Cup Jukebox. You can try your own players output code. Insert the code below replacing the necessary file names and window size.

    NOTE: This code must be manually inserted above or below Shozam on the index page.
    Edit the code as necessary to match your files and needs.
     
    <a href="jukebox_player.html" onclick="window.open(this.href, 'jukebox_player', 'height=220, width=300, scrollbars=no');return false;" class="parag"><font color="#FFFFFF" size="2">JukeBox Test</a> 

    NOTE:  I have tried to insert the code in Shozam "Step 5 / HTML" and it only appears to work on some linked pages within Shozam. Some links within Shozam are dead links to the player. SEE HERE: http://www.primetimebulldogs.com/testaudio2/index.htm

    Jstorck,

    Make sure you enter the URL path as absolute, not relative:

    <a href="http://www.primetimebulldogs.com/testaudio/jukebox_player.html" onclick="window.open(this.href, 'jukebox_player', 'height=220, width=300, scrollbars=no');return false;" class="parag"><font color="#FFFFFF" size="2">JukeBox Test</a> 

    This is neccessary since not all the Shozam gallery pages are in the same directory so relative URLs will need to be different for pages that reside at different locations!

    Works great!!

    The above links have been updated to include: "Make sure you enter the URL path as absolute, not relative"
    Shozam has been reloaded with html inserted in "Step 5 / HTML. Find or buy a player and that should maybe satisfy
    some folks wishes. No issues here with IE, FireFox, or Safari that I've seen. I have not encountered any popup issues either.
