Use 'View' to inspect the code used to achieve these effects. You may need to experiment a bit. The various browsers handle embeded sounds differently.
Your browser does not support embedded WAV files.
Here use is made of the <embed> </embed> tag set
to play a foghorn .wav file.
Below the same .wav file is called using our familiar <a href=" sound file "> tag. Note that in this case a version of the
player console pops up.
Play Foghorn
It may take a few moments for the file and player to load.
Then there is the CSS <object> tag which is used below.
There also is JavaScript ...
And finally streaming media ...
First you need a real media text file (foghorn.ram in this case) that
lists the location (URLs) of the files to be streamed. Any number of sound files can be listed in this .ram file. I've included two. Then you just need call the .ram file. Of course you do need to create/encode the sound files. I used the free version of
Real Producer from the RealMedia site.
Most late version browsers include an audio player plug-in. You can
also download players from sites such as
RealAudio and QuickTime.
See the text (Niederst) for more information on embedding audio in
a HTML file. Note also that with all the variations embedding sound
is not an easy task. Universal standards are yet to evolve.
