I have been reading about the use of the OBJECT and EMBED tags, and
at first it seems to imply that the following HTML code on a page is
the correct way to play a MP3 file, but such is not the case.
<OBJECT NAME="Come_Together"
CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" WIDTH="160"
HEIGHT="144"
CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab">
<PARAM name="SRC" VALUE="Songs/come_together.mp3">
<PARAM name="AUTOPLAY" VALUE="true">
<PARAM name="CONTROLLER" VALUE="true">
<EMBED SRC="Songs/come_together.mov" WIDTH="300" HEIGHT="80"
AUTOPLAY="true" CONTROLLER="true"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/"
qtsrc="Songs/come_together.mp3">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
Only a <a...> tag seems to produce the desired affect, which is to
play the music through a player, which in the in my case is the
Quicktime Player.
<p><a href="Songs/come_together.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
<B>Start Playback...</B></a></p>
