Play Sound
The Play Sound action is used to add external controls to an audio file that normally uses the Netscape
LiveAudio plugin or the Windows Media Player. Supported audio file types include WAV, MID, AU, and
AIFF files. The Play Sound action??”which is generally used to add invisible background music to a page??”
inserts an tag with the following attributes:
n loop=false
n autostart=false
n mastersound
n hidden=true
n width=0
n height=0

Sound looks for the sound file to be inserted through the action??™s dialog box (see Figure 12-10).
