I am unable to create an html code that will play a brief wav file on Firefox 44. Previously I successfully used the following code. Why doesn't it work anymore? What code can I use?

<OBJECT ID="MediaPlayer1" CLASSID="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" CODEBASE="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab# Version=5,1,52,701" STANDBY="Loading Microsoft Windows® Media Player components..."

Hi oldtraveler, your code snippet is specific to the Windows Media Player plugin, which may not be very widely installed any more.

Inside your OBJECT, try replacing the EMBED tag with these lines: 

<audio controls>
  <source src="http://philsden.com/01/wav/superm.wav" 
   type="audio/wav">
</audio>

Firefox can play this file in an audio tag, so there is no reason to specify a plugin unless you want to support visitors with older browser. 

<audio src="http://philsden.com/01/wav/superm.wav" controls>

Keep in mind that is isn't polite to hide the player controls and the player (width=0, height=0) as that makes it impossible for visitor to mute the sound.

Thanks. The audio tag did it.
