Tanya,
Your code looks correct to play a sound. If you see the player
but nothing plays, try:
1. Make sure your sound is turned up.
2. Make sure the spelling and capitalization of the filename is correct.
3. Make sure the file is in the same directory as the html file,
if not, either move the sound file, or give the correct path to it
(for example, src="images/Jimmy.wav")

The height and width options in the embed command indicate
that you want the plugin or soundplayer to show on the page.
The usual size that works in Netscape and IE is width=145 height=60
If you use less than this amount, you get the partial player.
Some people want the partial player so that only the start button shows.
You can experiment with different sizes.

You can see embedded .wav examples and view source for more help at my site:

Hope this helps,

P.S. I like your pictures of California on your site!
