Sound in HTML
There are two basic approaches. You can embed music or sound to start automatically when the page loads like this: 
<embed src="relativepath/yoursound.mid"
hidden="true"
autostart="true"
loop="true"
width="70" height="25">
Using the Embed Tag to Play Music
Tag Meaning
<embed src=relativepath/yoursound.mid name of sound file, usually *.mid *.mp3
hidden=true hide
autostart=true Automatically start the music
loop=true Play the music over and over
width=70 Control Panel is 70 pixels wide.
height=25 Control Panel is 25 pixels high.
The other technique is with a simple link usually with an icon that starts the music or sound when you click. click to listen 
<a class="jgloss" href="sound/roedy.mp3"><img src="image/audio/mp3.png"
alt="Voice" border="0"
width="24" height="32"

If you want your message, your name or email kept confidential, not considered for public posting, please explicitly specify that. Unless you state otherwise, I will treat your message as a letter to the editor that I may or may not publish in the feedback section. After that, it will be too late to retract it. If you disagree with something I said, especially when sending an ad-hominem attack, a rant composed mainly of obscenities or a death threat, please quote the offending passage and cite the web page where you found it, tell me why you think it is wrong, and, if possible, provide some supporting evidence. I can’t very well fix erroneous or ambiguous text if I can’t find it.
