sound file

[fulio pen]

Please open the following page, and you will see a table:

http://www.pinyinology.com/combi/table1/table1.html

And please click any word in blue. A brief sound will come out in a
sound page. After the sound is over, one has to close the sound page
to go back to the table. When I made the page with the recorded
sounds, no sound page would appear, but just the sound came out, with
the table in the monitor. But later it changed due to whatever the
reason was. I
did not change the code at all.

What I like to have is the original, that is, after clicking a blue
spelling, a sound comes out, but the table won't disappear, and stay
as it is.

Thanks for your expertise and help.

You need to embed the sound into the page, merely putting a link
to the sound makes the browser go to the url concerned.

Embedding sound into pages is a large topic and is similar in the
psychological world to dynamite in the physical.

On your sound links add the target blank
<a href="ar.wma" title='Click to listen'>ar</a>
Change to
<a href="ar.wma" title='Click to listen' target="blank">ar</a>
Add the target="blank" to all your sound links and that should provide
and immediate bandaid.

In addition, fix your html element opening tag to match the dtd you
specify, and then validate the html.

It was impossible to validate your web page past the errors caused by the
incorrect html element opening tag.

If you use the target attribute on anchor/link elements, you may need to
use a frameset dtd, not sure for xhtml 1.0 though.

Question, why are you coding xhtml 1.0? If this is a new page, why did
you not code it in proper xhtml 1.1 instead of the html - xhtml stepping
stone mix of xhtml 1.0?

And if this was an old html page, why are you bothering to convert it at
all given the dead end that xhtml seems to have reached?

Thanks to all for your help. I posted my question on Aug. 3, but
didn't see it on the group page for a while, and posted it again. Then
all google groups were frozen on me until a moment ago. So many
days! I wonder whether anyone else had same frustrating experience
during last few days. Sorry for this late appreciation and thank you
again.

Yes, I was looking something up and things were frozen on some
pages to Aug 2 and it was some days before it updated.

My knowledge and skills are quite unprofessional, and don't understand
the doctypes at all. So far I just copy a doctype from a tutorial to
my page, but hope will learn more. Now I am using the simple <!doctype
html>, and expecting it to work on all types of page.

Thanks for your help.
