The reason I see is that there is no <EMBED> tag which is needed to play
background sound in Netscape. The <BGSOUND> tag only works for IE . If you
don't know HTML then you probably have no idea what I am talking about. If
you need help with your web page just ask me a question(privatly) and I will
do my best to answer it. I am reconstructing my web page to have a chat
room, Bulletin Board, and much more. So keep checking back cuz it should be
completed in a couple of weeks.

My dad just told me he couldn't hear it, so I dug out Netscape and tried it.
Sure enough, no music (Explorer picks it up). Is there some setting I can't
find, or do I need to make a change to the page? Or is this just
impossible in Netscape?
(BTW, lest you think I'm endorsing Explorer, I couldn't care less, it
happened to be on the machine and seems to work most of the time.)
And yes, this is at least a bit Dakota related, since there's sound on the
DML meet page. Okay, it's a stretch. But only a little one :-).
Thanks.

(By the way, has anyone ever noticed the similarity between web browsers and
big ugly urban assault vehicles made by Foard? Netscape Navigator ---
Lincoln Navigator. Internet Explorer --- Foard Explorer. Hmmm..... Wonder
if the next Foard is going to be called Mosaic.)
