>>Hi Jac,
>>
>>> can someone recommend a tried & tested method of
>>> adding sound to a site, please?
>>
>>How about some text that says:
>>"To enjoy this site fully, please turn on your stereo and insert your
>>favourite CD".
>>
>>OK, I'm joking. Sort of. (I'm wearing headphones now, with the volume up,
>>and if I hit a website and it played a .wav file over the top of my
>>Radiohead MP3s I would *not* be a happy camper)
>>
>>I always thought it was:
>>
>><embed src="mySound.wav" autostart="true" loop="false" volume="100"
>>hidden="true">
>><noembed>
>>  <bgsound src="mySound.wav">
>><noembed>
>>
>>Where autostart, loop and hidden can be true or false, and volume is 0-100.
>>
>>But this probably only works in one obscure version of IE 4 :-)
>>
>>Cheers
