The above is coded in PHP
If you want to use Silverlight, then here is what you need:

This link is to a blog entry on how to add sound to your Silverlight application

Using those together will get you what you want.
Also look at this page. They have a product that will do it for you (also in silverlight) for about $50
This was done in Flash, actually. But you can try using jQuery with all its effects to achieve something close to that.

I am working on a weather app (for learning purposes) using Windows Phone SDK and C# as programming language.
I need to display an icon for each type of weather, for example, cloudy, raining, sunny, windy etc. I was wondering about what my options are.
I googled a little and found this. This is a Javascript library. Is there any way I can use this in my xaml page? If not, what are my options to show animated images in xaml?
No, you cannot use javascript based images in XAML.
You have several options here:
Use gif images (supported via third party components)
Use small videos (MediaElement)
Animate it yourself using XAML elements (hardest)
Use WebBrowser component and then import that js images (might also be hard)
My requirement is to integrate a web camera in aspx page and i need to capure a picture for the customers and insert in the database. I have tried with flash player,Aforge dll and silverlight. Can anyone suggest me an easy way to integrate web camera in aspx page. I have been trying this for a long time now.
DirectShow.Net is really your best option to achieve this functionality. C# and the .Net framework do not provide really any support or API's for webcam access.

I am working on a windows phone app, in which I will need to add a costom "cover-flow" kind of control like how it looks like in the Spotify app below:
Note: user can swipe from right to left to change song.
I don't think Windows Phone SDK provide any controls support this, so I was wondering how such a thing is implemented.
I think it is either faked by a pivot page with dynamically adding/deleting pivot items, or maybe it is a custom control.
If I want to implement this as a custom control, does anyone has experience about it, or any sample code/tutorial will be very helpful.
Thank you
You're looking at a Panorama control. It is available out of the box with the Windows Phone SDK.
Telerik makes a great control that does just this. It's called the SlideView control. I know it's not free, but it is only $99. Given that it might take you about 4-10 hours to create this control yourself, I'd say it's worth it. If you join the Nokia Premium Developer Program you get Telerik's controls for free.
Note: I do not work for Nokia or Telerik and this is NOT a paid advertisement :)
The swipping effect is because of Panorama page. to change music you need to handle gestures that will be a tough task . The solution is to find a hack or have some control in the background that registers the touch event and changes the music
In a windows application, you can create a new form and you can call that form by instantiating it inside the current form.
in windows phone app using XNA how can I do this? I want to create a menu page. then when a button from the menu page is clicked . it goes to another form .
I would recommend you that you should use an SLXNA project for your game and then you can handle the navigation between pages easily and you can use SL components and controls too.
SLXNA sample and tutorial
If you are looking to solve this only by XNA then i suggest you to look at the MSDN samples. They have MenuScreen integration and i think you are looking for this.

I have a simple wp7 app with 3 pages. I've made page transition to work (with built-in transitions from TransitionService (slide, rotate roll...) as shown in this simple tutorial. On one of my phone page, I bind few different ViewModels (only one is visible). Also, there I have a button which change DataContex (visible ViewModel). All of that work perfectly. What I want to do is to input somekind of transition on DataContex change (as I have on phone page navigation), so it would appear that the user is navigating on other page.
I appreciate any advice.
Christian Schormann demos creating page transitions in his Mix talk CL02. Download the video in high res format and play it locally will make it easy to follow.
Alternatively, you could make use of the Transition control packaged with the November Windows Phone Toolkit to do this work for you. Discussed in more detail here.

Depending on what you want to animate you could look at using a StoryBoard.
