Beware of MP3 encoders that sacrifice quality for speed. Many encoders simply eliminate the
upper audio frequency range so that they can encode the rest in record time. Although this
might be fine if you??™re encoding your CD collection into a massive jukebox on your computer, it is less than
ideal for content creators who want the best-quality encoded files.
Linking to Audio Files
The simplest way to add sound to a Web page is to create a link to an audio file by specifying the file path
in the Link text box of the Text or Image Property inspector. When the user clicks that link, the sound file
downloads, and whatever program has been designated to handle that type of file opens in a separate window.
An exception to this is the QuickTime Plugin. Instead of opening linked audio files in the QuickTime
Player, it opens them within the browser window as if they were a new Web page. To get back to your Web
page, the user clicks the browser??™s Back button.
To create a link to an audio file in Dreamweaver, follow these steps:
1. Select the text or image that you want to serve as the link to the audio file.
2. In the Property inspector, enter the name of the audio file in the Link text box, or click the Folder
icon to browse for the file. To link to a dynamic source, choose Select File Name from Data
Sources and select an appropriate field from the available recordset(s).
