I'm new to js and php and tried to have music playing when mouseover my slideshow. Thing is the slideshow contains several slides obviously and I don't know how to select the right variable value to have it play... I could get $my_music to have the values of all the rows which I don't want. I would only have the right one when on the according slide. And it is all in the database, which connects just fine and everything. Only issue is this audio part...
here is my code (not the slideshow js part)
<?php include('includes/header.php')?>
<div id="my_slideshow">
<?php
$req_user = mysqli_query( $connect, "SELECT * FROM albums ORDER BY album_date ASC" );
if ( mysqli_num_rows( $req_user ) > 0 ) {
while ( $slide = mysqli_fetch_array( $req_user ) ) {
$my_slide .= '<figure>';
$my_slide .= '<img src="images/'.$slide[ 'album_img' ].'">';
$my_slide .= '<figcaption>';
$my_slide .= '<h2>'.$slide['artist_name'].'</h2>';
$my_slide .= '<h3>'.$slide['album_name'].'</h3>';
$my_slide .= '<p>'.'<time>'.$slide['album_date'].'</time>'.' '.$slide['label_name'].'</p>';
$my_slide .= '<p>©'.$slide['cover_artist'].'</p>';
$my_slide .= '</figcaption>';
$my_slide .= '</figure>';
$my_music .= $slide['album_audio'];
}
echo($my_slide);
}
?>
</div>
</article>
</main>
<script type="text/javascript">
var item = document.getElementById("my_slideshow");
var music = new Audio('musics/<?php echo $my_music; ?>');
item.addEventListener("mouseover", playMusic, false);
item.addEventListener("mouseout", stopMusic, false);
function playMusic() {
console.log('<?php echo $my_music ?>');
console.log('<?php echo $my_slide ?>');
music.play();
}
function stopMusic() {
music.pause();
music.currentTime = 0;
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
slide_show('#my_slideshow', 4000);
})
</script>
<?php include('includes/footer.php');?>```
