Different Ways to Play a Sound from a Web Page
Back to menu
1.Normal Hyperlink to a Sound File
This is the simplest way but usually causes a helper application to be launched to play the sound.
These helper applications (plugins) are often not configured correctly. Sometimes the link will display a new page, sometimes it will just offer the file for download.
Even if the helper application works, buffering the sound often causes problems. Either
the replay starts too late and you have to wait for the whole audio to be downloaded, or it starts too early and runs out of data part way through .
