RE: [PHP] RE: php speaking to com...

Probably not possible using PHP alone, Have you thought about server generated flash to annoy your clients? php has some nice facilities to create flash on call. Obviously this is dependant on your clients having flash capable browsers (most 4.x do it on PC , Mac) Other thoughts: You cannot call a client side api from php. Exactly what is going to play your beep? You could however create a java or (shudder) active x component which does this for you. Another escoteric way would be to use a buffer overflow in IE to call the beep code, but this is highly dependant on versions - and I'm sure client pc's aren't happy about crashing browsers so you can beep at them ;) -----Original Message----- From: Heath Boutwell [mailto:dspread@yahoo.com] Sent: September 15, 2000 09:21 AM To: Nold, Mark; php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] RE: php speaking to com... Mark, I probably should have been more clear: I need the audible on the CLIENT side -- Basically play one of the Windows standard 'CHIME' .wav files or whatever, WITHOUT spawning a media player or whatever on the client. I need the OS to invoke the .wav file, not 'open' it windows media player or whatever.
