This isn't for a regular web page. I am creating a web based greeting 
card in Greeting Card Factory and the url will be sent to only one 
person who will have no trouble viewing it. Greeting Card Factory has an 
option to add sound to the cards but it doesn't do it correctly. The 
sound doesn't play in any browser. One glitch that is causing this is 
that there is an error in the sound code it generates. It names any 
sound file a wav. I can go in and correct this part, but the sound still 
won't play in the browsers. I remember finding a way to get it to work 
in a previous version I had a few years ago but I can't remember how I 
did it.
