Hello all,

My name is Festus and I have a website, ( | www.festworld.com) that was built by a now defunkt web design company. Overall I am happy with the site however there a few new changes (additions/subtractions) that I need doing e.g. the addition of a flash music player.
I am not a web designer so if anyone out there knows their way around flash and can get involved, then please contact me: <snipped>
Thankx

Festus

PS do leave feedback on the site

When this thread began asked for a Flash music player. That request should be updated: Adobe ended Flash Player support on 31 December 2020 and modern browsers no longer run it (official notice: Adobe Flash Player end-of-life). Building new features with Flash is not recommended; the safest path is to replace Flash players with HTML5 audio or a small JavaScript player.

A minimal, future-proof option is the HTML5 <audio> element (see MDN audio element). For a consistent UI and features (playlists, custom controls, cross-browser handling) consider a lightweight library such as Howler.js (howlerjs.com). Example starting point:

<audio controls preload="none" aria-label="Music player">
  <source src="media/track.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
  <a href="media/track.mp3">Download track</a>
</audio>

When migrating from a Flash player, check these items: confirm master audio files (MP3 is widely supported; provide OGG as a fallback for older stacks), ensure the host serves correct MIME types and Accept-Ranges for seeking, enable CORS if streaming from a CDN, and accept that autoplay is restricted on many browsers and mobile devices (muted autoplay is the usual exception). Add accessible labels and visible controls for keyboard and screen-reader users.

Note the community offers: offered help, and warned about restrictive hosted services — make sure the chosen host allows custom HTML/JS and domain control. If SWF interactivity needs preserving rather than audio-only migration, an emulator like Ruffle (ruffle.rs) can help, but plain HTML5 is the recommended, long-term solution. A practical next step is to gather hosting access, audio files, and a short feature list (playlist, autoplay, analytics) before implementing.

Sorry I did not explain it well enough. If you ever wanted to transfer your domain to somewhere else do not use windows live small business. The reason I posted that is because it says free so you sign up with your domain name to get a bunch of unexpected catches you were not expecting and it would never be able to do flash. Sorry I think I may have gone off topic a little.
