| Check out: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_sounds.asp
Some of the problems that it lists are "Different browsers support different audio formats" and "If a browser does not support the file format, the audio will not play without a plug-in"
It provides a solution using HTML5 and an HTML fallback that might work for you.
But dpdp is right, autoplaying sounds can be really annoying for visitors.

| Hi,
In understand what you mean but when your boss asks you something and tell you to do it, you have to.........I am not in a position to decide what I want unfortunately as my boss will not let me explain what we should do or not do. I must do what "he" wants without questioning.
Thank you,
Ben
