...and in the same directory (folder) as this file is one whose name is backsound00.js which looks like this....
function InsertBackSound()
{
document.write('<EMBED SRC="http://www.purdue.edu/BANDS/news/scrapbook/aamb/HailPurdue.mp3"');
document.write(' WIDTH=150 HEIGHT=75 AUTOSTART=FALSE>');
}
If you know how to use JavaScript, this will seem pretty simple. If you do not know how to use JavaScript, just do this exactly as I have done it here -- replacing the file name by the one you want to play.
EMBED tag is used to embed sound or video on page -- like inline image
Use WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes to leave space for audio controls
Use ALIGN attribute same way as for images
AUTOSTART=FALSE keeps the sound from starting automatically on Internet Explorer (would not anyway on Netscape)
