linking music externally

[Hooks]

I have a .swf music file and would like to insert it into a website, but want it to play throughout the whole site. In other words, have the music run continuously while navigating from page to page.

I've embedded music files in individual pages, but when clicking to another page the music stops. Is the best way to link externally somehow? Any insight is greatly appreciated.

While not directly answering your question, it is relavent.

Are you really, really, REALLY, sure you want music on every page? For me and probably other people too, I despise sites that use music and will often just close the site if i can't very quickly figure out how to shut it off.

Often when surfing at home I have my own music on. So I dont want some website suddently deciding what I should be listening to.

If you must include music, give the user some easy way of turning it off.

I agree with giving the user a way to turn it off. The method you must use however involves some type of frame. You can use a normal frameset or use a page that opens pages in an iframe or pulls them in using ajax.

Agreed, the user should have the option to turn the music off, down, up, etc.

Using Flash, I created a .swf music file with controls, and inserted this file into an html page with Dreamweaver, and this page plays the music just fine. I know that flash is flexible, is it possible to somehow have this music play continuous throughout the site, and somehow have these controls inserted into each html page? There 4 pages on the site.
