You can have sounds on your page using .au, .wav, or midi formats. I'll show you how to either embed the sounds or call them up through helper applications.

HTML Getting Started Embedded Sound Tutorial
Sounds on the Net are a great thing. If you have a computer equipped with a sound card and a few shareware programs, you can hear as much as you care to download. Van Halen is my favorite musical group. Before their greatest hits album came out, I was able to download the sound files of the two new songs and enjoy them through my RealAudio players. I still bought the CD, of course.
The following will cover two ways of offering sounds over the Internet: helper applications and embedding the sounds. Right up front, I should point out that the EMBED command is not "standard" HTML. That means it is not one of the commands the W3 has proclaimed is good for all browsers. EMBED is a command that is understood by the Netscape Navigator browser alone.
Use both. Then all browsers will be able to play the sound. Helper Applications When the World Wide Web first got started, back when Mosaic was the browser and this new thing called Netscape 1.0 came out, sounds were available, but they were played with the use of a helper application. Helper applications were programs that attached to the Netscape browser. You're using helper applications right now! Look at the top of your browser. See that thing called Options? Click on it. Choose Preferences, then choose Helper Applications. There they all are. Roll down the list. You'll see a lot of extra applications and a lot of "Ask User" statements. In order to play a sound file, like .wav, .au, or .aiff, you will need to attach an application that the browser can use to play the sound. I used (and still use) a program called WHAM . It's great and it plays a great many types of sound files.
