I maintain a couple web sites for people. One of them has a "welcome" message as a WAV file play when you initially go onto the site. I have read the info about Firefox and the Microsoft Front Page issue with "non-Standard Code" Yes, I do use Front Page, actually I use Expression 2 now. What do I need to do, besides switching programs, to get this sound to play when the site is viewed in Firefox?? What type of coding changes do I have to make to get it to recognize it and play it??

Thanks

Bob

Make sure that you do not use BGSOUND to play that .wav file as that doesn't work in Firefox.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Background_music_does_not_play

Can you post an URL, then we can check the code?
