I added a background music file to my webpage using FrontPage 2000. The audio will play in the "Preview" tab in but will not play in the Firefox browser window. <bgsound src="http://www.Your-Daily-Income.com/TVS/Audio/waves.mp3" loop="-1"> When I view the page source (http://screencast.com/t/w0p7Z2iLvMi0), and click on the hyperlinked "bgsound src" file I get this: (http://screencast.com/t/D49tu8NsKPH) Any help is appreciated.

BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox and only works in IE.

You need to use other ways like an embed or object element for older browsers or the audio tag for recent browsers.

If you use type="application/x-mplayer2" then the Windows Media Player will be used to play the file. Without a specific type attribute the QuickTime plugin will be used on Windows.
