Hi SStewart and all, Adding audio files is fine as far as it goes, but it presents problems for those who cannot take advantage of the audio. At any rate, if you ad audio you have to caption it and if you are going to go to all that trouble, you may as well provide the info on the site inn html.

If it is just 'eye-candy' and the information it refers too is contained in the rest of the web page in (X)HTML then you shouldn't have any problems. If not then you could use audio files to add meaning a screen reader might miss.
