Does anyone know a way to generate a sound (bell, click, tone, peep, buzz, word) from php?
Hi Tedd, I was about to tell you that ringing a bell from PHP wasn't possible, since PHP is executed on the server, but I searched for http://php.net/bell and found this: http://php.net/manual/en/function.newt-bell.php Unless the Newt functions are an extension you're looking for, I suspect you're off-track. A bell or other terminal sound is a time-specific event. PHP generally executes in background, generating data to be downloaded to the client and rendered there in "real time." When exactly would you have a bell rung? I believe you need to look to a client-side script for this type of functionality. Unless you want a bell to ring on the server while it's executing a script for the client? Curiously, Paul
