Was experimenting with sound and sound formats. The strangest thing happened. Could get a .WAV booming from my speakers on a MAC in Netscape 4, but allas on a PC in IE3 the machine crashed after someone had to download it from the site. I thougth WAV was the windows format? Can it get any stranger? Found a sugestion from someone. Place a <bgsound src="sound.wav" autostart="true"> together with a <object><embed src="sound.wav" autostart="true"></object> The <bgsound> tag makes the IE play the sound and the <EMBED> tags make Netscape play the sound while the <object></object> tags force newer versions of IE to ignore the <EMBED> tag (because otherwise the sound is played two times mixed) Can somebody tell me if this is right, or is there an other solution? Secondly, I converted it also to sun Audio 16 bit 11 Mhz with SoundApp, though someone stated it is only possible to play 8mhz .AU files. Will my 11 mhz .au files be played like a 8MHZ in older browsers?? Jeroen Goulooze
