Joomla doesn’t work like this. It builds a page on menü click from the db with the files, css and content so each new page is a new load…

Personally I hate sites that automatically load music. It could lose you a lot of visitors – most office machines either don’t have speakers or it is not the done thing to hear music in the office.

Hi swissa, thanks for your response. I agree with your statement that music in background could be a disturbing element on web page. Neither this fact don’t change my need to look for a solution which allow to play music continuosly after each new load. But I am affraid that Joomla can’t provide this feature like a flash website

Any advices guys?

Did you check the link?

<blockquote>The solution then is to use one of the flash player extensions that loads the player in a pop-up window. This way, when the user navigates away, the background music does not stop and restart because the pop-up window remains open. The obvious downside here is that most pop-up windows are blocked by browsers these days (especially those that happen automatically without the user’s consent) so your users may never hear the background music that you so carefully selected.</blockquote>

That’s about the best I can offer podnot. Sorry!
