Hi Mike,
That is good to know. It seems that more and more people are wanting to
embed some sort of video in their sites these days, and this sounds like a
good way of accomplishing that goal. Thanks.

David,
Just an FYI in case it ever comes up:
Serif resells a product called Kool Moves. It's a Flash creation program.
One can take an image and add sounds to it (I use it for our pastor's
weekly sermons). It produces fairly small files (about one meg per minute
of sound) which is decent. But, even better, Kool Moves allows one to
export the Flash movie as an html page - about 2K in size for a 2 meg
movie
A daughter of a former parishioner sent me a home video her dad had made
about 68 years ago. It was a 341 meg file. The size of the web page: 10K.

Yes, mp3 aren't supported to the best of my knowledge. When you get to
the background sound dialog and click the browse, look at the default
sound files that Publisher lists in the file type. I suspect that you
need to convert your mp3 to one of those, and maybe a midi file. Also be
sure to check the file size after you Publish to the Web, as unless it is
very small, it won't load immediately...which would be a good thing in my
book :-) I am not a fan of background music.
This issue has come up before, and another poster found some sort of code
snippet that allowed them to import the sound into the page, and bypass
the built-in background music feature in Publisher. You might google
around to see if you can find something???

Hello again everyone! (DavidF., I owe you a beer (or a keg) for all
the help you have offered me at the very least!!)
My web page (landing page) I'm working on should have a background
voice over that matches the movie being shown on the page. In the
preview in Pub2003 it works fine, but I can't get it to work published
on the web. The voiceover is an mp3 file, which wasn't an option in
the dialogue for adding the background sound, but it let me add the
mp3 anyways. Perhaps that is the problem: pub doesn't support mp3, but
that doesn't make any sense because that is the most compact format
available...
I added the sound by right clicking on the page number at the bottom
and choosing "web page options" and browsed for it in the "background
sound" area.
website is at: http://securedata.wintensive.com
Let me know if anyone knows why the background voice over isn't
playing or what formats are supported. Thanks!!
Jason T.
