Hi Roger,

As far as I know, the bgsound was never part of the specification.

So try the following valid code to see if it works.

<object classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95"
	id="mediaplayer1" height="40" width="120">
	<param name="Filename" value="webwav/WelcomeMessage.wav">
	<param name="AutoStart" value="False">
	<param name="ShowControls" value="True">
	<param name="ShowStatusBar" value="False">
	<param name="ShowDisplay" value="False">
	<param name="AutoRewind" value="True">
</object>

And for more information on the object element and its attributes, you may
like to go through
the following tutorial:  http://tutorials.beginners.co.uk/read/id/315

OK, seems that the list is starting to work again and the posting
I made to the list is on the list the same day (AU EST)

In some way a list such as this may be a good community type
involvement on an International level and you get to talk and
respond to thing that otherwise you might not.

For those that do not want to be involved where they get
everything from a community type e-mail list such as this, there
is of course the Forum that GIO started, which has it's merits,
in that you only get involved when you log in and only reply to
things that are of specific interest to you.

So after all this, I still do not have an answer to my Sound code
problem on my main page and would like some help. The error is
with any of the 2 codes I have embedded which the W3C validation
service keeps knocking back with the following 11 ( 3 on line 20
for 1st code and 8 on line 444 for the second code, which is the
code as per instructions for their type) error messages;-

START OF ERROR REPORT >>>
This page is not Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional!
Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with
an SGML parser.

Line 20, column 15: there is no attribute "SRC"
<BGSOUND src="webwav/WelcomeMessage.wav" loop="1">

You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the
document type you are using does not support that attribute for
this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the
"Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you
must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target"
attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as
"marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the
desired effect instead).

This error may also result if the element itself is not supported
in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will
have no supported attributes; in this case, see the
element-undefined error message for further information.

How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and
attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that
they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS
instead of this attribute.

You have used the element named above in your document, but the

the "Frameset" document type to get the "<frameset>" element), or
by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "<spacer>" or
"<marquee>" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the
desired effect instead).

So does anyone know the correct embedded code, or does W3C not
think that sound is an acceptable code.

Interesting Bill,
I will do as you suggest,
Reply All and delete You from the To Field and monitor the
result.
However, we still have missing e-mail posts on the list
