I'd like to ask why we cannot play integrated sound on a web page when the sound file (.wav format) is located with https url link. From the same web page, the sound can be played well with Internet Explorer.

Thanks a lot for your support.

Can you post a link if the page doesn't require authentication or otherwise paste the relevant in a post?

Are you using an OBJECT or EMBED tag to play that .wav file or an AUDIO tag?

Hi,

Here is the javascript code we used for playing sound in background.

 <script type="text/javascript">
 var DIV_beepSoundContainer = new div("beepSoundContainer","","");
 guiOMPage.addElement(DIV_beepSoundContainer);
      </script><div id="beepSoundContainer" class="" style="" onmouseover="" onmouseout="" onclick=""><object type="application/x-mplayer2" height="0" width="0"><param name="fileName" value="https://www.telephoniemobiles-standard.test.orange-business.com/console/standard/login/help/Btelm/beep1.wav"><param name="AutoStart" value="true"><param name="PlayCount" value="1"></object></div><script type="text/javascript">
 DIV_beepSoundContainer.init();
      </script>


Unfortenately, I could not give you the page web & use case where the sound should be played (authentication required). Again, the sound is played well with Internet Explorer.

If I replace the link by http://..., the sound works well.

Do you know any limitation of Mozilla related to the use of https?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards

For Firefox you need to specify the file name as a data attribute in the OBJECT tag 

<object 
 data="https://www.telephoniemobiles-standard.test.orange-business.com/console/standard/login/help/Btelm/beep1.wav" 
 type="application/x-mplayer2" height="0" width="0">
 <param name="fileName" value="https://www.telephoniemobiles-standard.test.orange-business.com/console/standard/login/help/Btelm/beep1.wav">
 <param name="AutoStart" value="true">
 <param name="PlayCount" value="1">
</object>
