sound

[Rose-Marie]

When a particular function is called by any other function, I would like to include in this particular function a means of playing a 2 second *.wav file.

The actual program can be found at:

and the sound is to be produced in the function display(), whenever the player gives an icorrect answer.

I would be pleased if anyone could show me how to do this.

You can't reliably do that.

Since many people surf with sound turned off, or, lack sound capability
to start with, you can't reliably do it, and definitely not cross-browser.

But try invoking the play() and stop() on an embed tag. Or, write an
embed tag to a div using innerHTML. Consult the FAQ
