I used this nice code, that allows the visitor to turn the music off, if they choose, but the music should start automatically when the page loads.
I tested it in MSIE, Mozilla Firefox and Netscape and it works fine for me. My client says that 6 of the 17 pages in the gallery don't play music, but they do for me.
Here's the code that plays the music:
<embed height="60" src="sounds/gallery/J0219198.WAV" AUTOSTART="true" hidden="FALSE" width="144" loop="true">
Any ideas why she can't hear it? She does hear it on some of the gallery pages. (She said she never touched the controls to stop the music)
I'm stymied, thanks for any assistance!

If some are MP3's she may be missing a late enough version of the media player or the codecs to play them.
She doesn't even see the control buttons to play or stop the song on the pages with the WAV files.
Do you think she just needs to upgrade her media player?
She usually browses in AOL 9.0, which she and I hate because it and 8.0 never refreshes when we ask it to, but that's another issue altogether.
Thanks again
They are both quite old, WAV files can be big too, I am surprised all modern and even most of the less modern browsers/media players don't cope with them.
If its a Windows PC or notebook try a search on "microsoft windows update" to get a later version.
Good Luck.
"I do have the latest version of media player. I just up graded it recently. Plus all those songs came from files on my computer and play on it..."
So I guess I'm back to square one. Can't figure out why "embed" won't play WAV files for her.
Thanks for your suggestions
