tikking sound when reloading

[eagleye]

i recently finished a php chat. the page with the messages refreshes every two seconds. the problem with this is that, under windows, this goes hand in hand with this enerving tikking sound. is there a way to deactive this, or to replace the sound with an empty .wav? or does anybody have a way around this. i also tried putting the text in a textarea and having it refreshed every 2 seconds but that didn't work out.

i meant turning it of for the other persons using the chat. it's really irritating when you're listening to music, or no sound at all and you hear this 'tik' every 2 seconds..

You can't turn it off as far as I am aware. Best thing you can do is provide that page as a reference for how they can turn it off....

You need to inform the chat users to use a Macintosh. They will no longer hear this annoying tick.
