Ie8

On my homepage, I have a background .mid file,
on IE7 and below, when you go to the next page it will stop
however on IE8 the .MID keeps playing

On another one of my pages I have another sound file, you then get a mishmash of
music.

On the HTML, I have done it so it will only play the background music once.

so question

is there a way around this (setting on IE8)
if not how prevalent is IE8?

thanks

Personally, I hate web pages with sound.

Agreed.

It's considered bad form to have things run automatically.

User initiated is always better.

Quick Poll:

How many of us surf with sound muted?

I'm one.
