 I uploaded it again, it seems it didn't load correctly, but would that
 code work? HTMLdog.com  doesn't appear to have the code for adding
 background music...This is for a class, and I just need to have an
 "enhancement" so I thought I'd throw in music.

 I definitely agree...but like I said, it's just for a class. And I'm
 not really sure what an "enhancement" entails....? Unless you've got
 any ideas??

 Great idea, so is the code that they would click to link the same as if
 I were linking to another image or page?
