Thanks for that random lump of code without explanation.

However,here's your answer:

Hello Bezz,

It looks like you are using demo 4 as a starting point. As Jonathan
wrote, it would help to give an explanation rather than purely rely on
the title. Your other post got flagged as spam because the system
thought you were a spammer.

On to your problem...

This line here is making jPlayer auto play the track. In the jPlayer
ready function:

ready: function () {
$("#track-01").trigger("click");
}

If you comment it out, the track will not play on page load. However,
the 'play' button will not work until the user clicks on one of the
tracks.

To solve that problem, I'd suggest something like:

ready: function () {
$("#trackname").text($("#track-01").text());
$("#jquery_jplayer").jPlayer("setFile",$
("#track-01").attr("href"));
}

That should do it.

Best regards,
Mark P.

@Jonathan: That did make me laugh. But in fairness this demo is a
little more complicated to disable the auto-play and I'm not sure if
there is a solution for disabling it given in the group.

Hmmm... On that point, I'll add a few terms below to help others find
this information in the group.

Search tags: demo-04, demo 4, autoplay, autostart, disable.
