Adding Sound to Web Pages

It is very easy to add links to your web pages to let your readers play sounds. Here is a link to a sound file of cows mooing; click it and see what happens. Save this sound file into the same folder as your homepage with its default name of moo.au (click the right mouse button on the link and choose "Save Link As"). Then open your homepage with the editor and add the following text to a convenient place in the file: 

<h2> Sound Files </h2>
<a href="moo.au">Cows Mooing</a>

Save the changes, point the browser to your homepage, and reload. Now you should have a link in your homepage that plays the sound file when you click on "Cows Mooing".

Use the above sound link as a template to add other sound files to your homepage. You can find a large source of such files at the FTP site sunsite.unc.edu
