1) Select a Graphic and a Sound
Find a sound that you would like to link
to a graphic.
For example, it you are teaching a language,
you could choose a picture of an object and then record the name of
the object .
= chile (as is done in Wiki pedia)
Create the sound file using PowerPoint
or any other program that you may have. Save it as an .aif or .wav.
Keep the sound file short and the file size small. (under 100K)
2 Place the Image in Your
Media Folder
The folder will be called "img" in the examples below.
3 Insert the image into
your web page
In Dreamweaver - insert your cursor where you want the image
to appear. From the file menu, insert image.
4 Insert the Sound into your
web page
In Dreamweaver - insert your cursor any where in front of the
image on your web page. Then select in the file menu, Insert Media >
plug-in. Browse to your media folder. Dreamweaver will then insert the
image into you web page. (If you do not have Dreamweaver and are hand-coding
your page, then view the "source" of this page to find
the coding.)
5 Link the Sound
Select the image and then link the text to
the sound file in your "img" (or media) folder. In Dreamweaver
- use the Properties window to insert the link.
6 Test the sound on both Windows
and Macintosh platforms.
Example: Betty Boop sound image
