hide/show slider kills mp3 player

[landonwisely]

I’m a pretty big n00b where JavaScript is concerned, and I pretty much haven’t done much out of the box with the current wordpress theme I’ve been using. it has a navigation bar slider that uses scriptaculous and a pretty simple looking ‘slide.js’ file:

Code:

function openNav() {
var targetDiv = $(‘slidebar’);
new Effect.BlindDown(targetDiv,{duration: 0.5});
new Effect.Fade(‘openSlidebar’);
Effect.Appear(‘closeSlidebar’, {delay: 1});
}
function closeNav() {
var targetDiv = $(‘slidebar’);
new Effect.BlindUp(targetDiv,{duration: 0.5});
new Effect.Fade(‘closeSlidebar’);
Effect.Appear(‘openSlidebar’, {delay: 1});
}

Basically, I’ve dropped a slick + simple mp3 player in the navigation section and want to be able to keep it hidden (without stopping the tunes)..

if it’s worth anything, here’s the object I’ve embeded.

Code:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Again, this is for sure not my strong suit, so go easy on me.

Thanks!
