Comments:
It should be noted that the MASTERSOUND attribute must be included in the EMBED tag in order to reference the .wav file by NAME in a Javascript. In Netscape 4 (testing for backward compatibility), adding the NAME attribute to the EMBED tag without an accompanying MASTERSOUND declaration prevented the sound from playing automatically:

<EMBED SRC="sound.wav" AUTOSTART="TRUE" LOOP="FALSE" WIDTH="0" HEIGHT="0" ALIGN="CENTER">

However, adding the MASTERSOUND attribute allowed the sound to play automatically on page load and made the .wav file's playback accessible to script control:

<EMBED NAME="wavfile" SRC="sound.wav" AUTOSTART="TRUE" LOOP="FALSE" WIDTH="0" HEIGHT="0" ALIGN="CENTER" MASTERSOUND>
