HTML Embed play() method
Hi Guys,
I am fairly advanced with JavaScript, but have been racking my brain with the most simple thing ever, HTML Embed. Basically, I'm trying to use the play() method to play a sound during a certain function. For some reason, it didn't work. So, I wrote a test doc to see if something else was interfering with it. The test doc contained the following code:
<HTML>
<head>
<script>
function EvalSound() {
document.getElementById('c
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<embed src="http://members.aol.com/bufferm/wav/chime.wav" autostart=false hidden=true id="chime" name="chime">
<form>
<input type="button" value="Play Sound" onClick="EvalSound()">
</form>
<script>
EvalSound();
</script>
</body>
</HTML>
Pretty simple huh? The <script>EvalSound();</scri

Why C? Please read http:help.jsp#hi73 and post a zero point question in http:Community_Support to review the grade.
Thanks a lot for the support Rod :)
No problem.
I agree, why C, but if you are looking for the perfect solution to this problem then my comment along with the sample is the one which was suppose to be assisted/accepted, but don't nobody think that I'm complainning about anything here,maybe asker was confused or didn't really understand the whole concept.

Stand corrected, I thought I had tested in all Gecko's. Nope in Opera.

it makes my point clearer if it works on mozilla based browsers.
Thanks PashaMod.
