  I noticed that Mozilla does not handle the command correctly.
  
  Is there a command that does the same but also runs in Mozilla?

  This should work in IE, Mozilla, Firefox, and Opera:

  <embed src="your.wav" autostart=false loop=false>

  It doesn't work in FireFox because it's not valid HTML, it's MS specific.

  If I wished to embred sounds on a webpage I would use a small .swf flash movie - you can then create controls to turn it off and on - as many become irritated with sounds palying on websites unasked for...

  You're not kidding! I find those bleepy/bloopy hover sounds an annoyance at the least...same with ambient background music and sounds. To me, they're none more than cyber-kitsch. Yea, I can disable them from playing (in most cases,) but by that time, I've already wasted bandwidth/time on it, cached it, gotten annoyed on it, etc...
  
  Of course, one could use a MIDI file to save the load time, but MIDI files are simply Muzak for websites, and an annoyance in themselves. ;)
  
  Sorry Kenshino for getting off-track. I guess this was just my longwinded way to say, "...I agree with Lobos...include a 'turn off' feature..." ...unless the site is geared toward ultra-green internet users...in which case you could probably pass off bgsounds as ¤bling¤bling¤
  
  ;)

  Sound is OK when the default is off.
  
  Sound is good for a radio station.
  
  Sound is great when it's on your competitors server.

  Real Flash sites with Good sound is acceptable... but the flash and sound has to serve a purpose. They got to offer entertainment, or a wow factor.
