Is there a good article or how can have an iframe or frame work asynchronously with every page? I have a bottom/fixed div wrapped in jquery to slide up on hover containing an mp3 player. I referenced the player with an iframe. I renderes fine, but how can it keep playing without a reload on page refresh or navigation to another page? I want it to be fixed at the bottom of every page and play continuously without refresh. I tried putting the iframe in each page, but that still didn’t work. Any ideas? Thank you.

If it must stay in the browser ( not downloading an application or read stream in a music/video player ), the only way should be to don’t really change page, and load content that must change with ajax or javascript ( or have it itself in a (i)frame ).
But it would be a lot easier to do a page with only the lector and put a link on your website to open it in another tab :
Edit :
So with javascript it would be the same result than ajax, but that means not changing page so for the SEO if it’s somewhat important it’s not good.
What I meant by javascript was for example if you click on link “home” just adding dynamically a
<script type="text/javascript" src="/homepage.js"></script>wich modify content of the page ( while keeping the mp3 player ).Otherway, maybe with a cookie if it’s possible with the player to know by javascript :
It would be possible when changing page to get at the good time ( but there will be the time to load the page and mp3 player without music ).
Or there could be mp3 player which can save a the time at wich we are, and begin at this time on another page ( but still while changing page no sound for several seconds ).
With these methods there would be too the issue of opening several pages.
Edit :
I tried the way with the content of the page in iframe, it works rather well but needs the membre to switch in the mp3 mode.
Here is mp3.html ( to put in root folder, if it’s not possible it would need some changes ) :
And to put a link that open the current page in an iframe and with an mp3 player, it only needs a link :
An example using that here.
