    Hi guys,
    My boss wants a sound effect to happen each time a navigation menu item is rolled over.  I am using the  radmenu navigation with a customized TIU skin- it is the horizontal nav with drop-down.
    Can you let me know if this is possible and point me in the right direction?
    thanks!

    Hello Ryan,

    It is possible to add sound effect using javascript. Depending on you requirements you can subscribe to the different client-side events. For example, subscribing on the OnClientItemOpening event, will play sound when the menu is opening. Please take a look at the following articles to see how you  can add sound using javascript.

    Thanks Kate-

    I am glad that it is possible.  I have been able to accomplish such a thing in a flat html site, so I understand the concepts, but I guess I am just not clear on how to implement this in Sitefinity.  I know the javascript code that I want to appear in the header, and I know that I want each of the nav links to have to call an onclientmouseover and onclientmouseout event.  I just have no idea where to put the actual code.  In the master page template?  Does it go in a control?  sorry, I am very new to this

    Hi Ryan,

    You can create a custom template for the navigation control which is based on RadMenu and include the javascript in the template. Then you can specify this template in the LayoutTemplatePath property in the design settings of the Navigation control. In case you use a simple master page i would suggest to take a look at the following article - Calling JavaScript from ASP.NET Master Page and Content Pages

    All the best,
