Hi,

I was wondering if PIE 4 supports embedding an MP3 sound in a web page. Here's what I want to do:

Create a set of web pages for a birdwatching database - description of bird, photo, birdcall. Each page would have a dropdown list (or a scrollable frame) with each bird. Selecting a bird would display its page. Clicking on a "play" icon would play the sound for that bird. So far, when I've tried to "play" a sound, I get a download/open box -- I just want the page to play it, not download it or open a new window.

I have about 200 bird sounds I want to use. The idea is to make a portable bird watching book for my wife.

I hope this is the right place to post this, it seems like a developer question...

Thanks,

RLW

Looks like the answer is "no" then - I don't think it's possible. I'm not sure if it's possible to add the right mime handler - have a google...
