Please see the sequel to this article, "Build a Better Web Audio Player," at http://digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2006/05/31/build-a-better-web-audio-player.html.


The script in that article does specify the Windows Media Plugin.

    Thank you so much!!! It works BEAUTIFULLY!!! Okay, can you tell me what will happen if the person doesn't have Windows Media Player?

      I don’t know, but would be curious to find out! Note that the script actually calls the Windows Media plugin, not the player. A person running Linux told me that his browser loaded the mplayer plugin (www.mplayerhq.hu) instead.

        I am very curious too. Yes, I am aware that it is actually a plugin rather than the regular installed program. I was wondering if you would catch that. :-) The thing I like as well, about the script that you pointed me to, is that it doesn't have any active x issues or messages. It's nice and clean. I like it a whole lot!!
