PHP Chat System Problem

Post by Takuma »

Hi,
I am creating a chat system using PHP. But when the system tries to refresh the content, it makes a horrible ***CLICK*** noise, I use <META> and Javascript but still didn't manage to get rid of the ***CLICK*** sound. Does anyone know how?

Is the sound part of your PHP programming or is it part of the Windows or whatever OS you are using? Cause its prolly just that....

Unless your calling an audio file that makes a click sound somewhere in your code, then it's the operating system. So if you didn't write audio into your program, than you have no control over the sound. Anyway, if the clicks annoy you, turn off your speakers :lol:

Go into your sound properties and disable the "Start Navigation" sound.

Yup, this is a client-side thing so even if you get rid of it for yourself there's no telling what your users have got setup on their own systems (if they're like some of our clients it'll be jungle sounds or something).

Exactly - and it's easy to see why you might think that PHP was causing the sound to occur, especially when you don't hear it any other time...

Glad you took the jibes in good humour Takuma, sometimes it's easy to forget that everybody has to start somewhere.
