Hi, I have an application where sound needs to be play as application start, I have used audio tag inside the body of master page but as we navigate to another page songs start from beginning, I know its because the master page is getting called everytime. Is there any way to play sound in whole application, without restarting the song even after navigating to other page. and how to stop and restart that song and setting volume of same for master page

THANKS

Not sure it's possible ...
each page is a different load, start fresh, but you can consider staying on the same page and changing the content, in frames, or HTML elements, and then of course you have full control on the sound element as well.

You'll have to use the 'obsolete' frameset tags (to me they're the best), put your songfile in those unchanging pages and you should have no problem. A webpage doesn't need to be visible, it may just contain your song file.

A Frameset divides the page into panels, each panel populated by a webpage. When a link is clicked in a panel, it only changes the panel you are clicking on (it is possible to alter that behavior).

Therefore you should have two panels ("frames"): one for your songfile, another one for you asp.net development.

Create a new html file and use the following code (name it index.html or something):

XML

<html>
<head>
<title>This is the actual title people will see</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="0,*"><!-- with 0, the top page won't be visible -->
   <frame src="song_page.html"><!-- you'll need yet another html file for the song -->
   <frame src="My_ASP_Start_Page.aspx"> <!-- your asp.net start page -->
</frameset>
</html>

This page must become your start page in the project. Notice there is no body tag.
The song_page.html should contain your song.

The upper panel populated by song_page.html will not change when users interact with the site, because your site is in the lower panel. Hence, the song file should never interrupt cause it is not in the same frame.
