sound on/off code

[ross]

I have been using this code for several years on my sites and now the darn
thing is not working both in my computer and on the host server. I would
appreciate any suggestions. Thank you, I appreciate this newsgroup.

<br><embed src="welcome0426.wav" controls="smallconsole"
autostart="true" loop="false" width="48" height="25"
volume="45">"On/Off/Replay <font color="#FFFF80" SIZE="-1"><br>

(1) <embed> isn't HTML or XHTML.
(2) <font> is deprecated in HTML 4.01
(3) Trying to play music automatically is annoying. Just try:
<p>You can listen to my <a href="welcome0426.wav"
type="audio/x-wav">music</a> (it's a 200kb WAV).</p>

Thank you for your reply. I always have tried to have an on/off on the
sounds. Can you help me with using a .mid file, also? I tried to substitute
the .mid to no avail. I appreciate this newsgroup. Dick Ross

Well, I can't help you with embed tags, like I said, but the paragraph with
link for an MID would be:

<p>You can listen to my <a href="welcome0426.mid"
type="audio/x-midi">music</a> (it's a 200kb MID).</p>
