how can i play music throughout website while changing pages

Is there a way i can play an mp3 when the site loads, and not have it resart every time i change pages (clicking on link to new page)?
I am not using frames...that would be easy.
right now i have the mp3 loading up on each individual page...that is the only way i thought i could have music playing throughout the site.
what i really want is when a user visits the home page...music to play, and when they click to a new page..the music should continue playing and not resart.
ANY SUGGESTIONS? please dont suggest not to put music on the site...my client wants it.

The easiest and only way i can see is to use frames!!

have a frame set to the whole window almost and then 1% portion contains the MP3.

I cant think of another way unless you want to re-code your whole site in flash.

you need something almost exactly similar to this:-

Code: Select all

<head> 
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> 
<title>World News Main</title> 
</head> 

<frameset cols="0%,*" border="0" frameborder="0"> 
<frame name="hidden" src="music.htm"> 
<frame name="right" scrolling="auto" src="NEWS_MAIN_MENU.htm" target="left1" scrolling="auto"> 
<noframes> 
<body>your browser doesn't "do" Frames
</body>
</html>
