HiJamie,
Yes, it's a strange one, only the laptop has the fault, all other pc's I
use play the intro.
I thought about the checkbox to allow wav files with software synth, in
the jfw config, or the refresh rate setting might be related, but
doesn't look like it. Looks lesss likely it's a jaws thing.
I used the recommended coding method according to the W3Schools xhtml
tutorial...that in itself often creates mixed debate on other lists.
I'll maybe post over there and see if anyone bites.
Cheers, Robin

Robin,
My home computer is doing something similar to what you are experiencing
but
my suspicion is that it may not be related to Jaws. I tried to go to
the
page with Jaws turned off and it doesn't play the tune on either your
site
or Tom's. It does, however, play on the sheep site that Tiddy
mentioned.
Having looked at the page coding on your site, Tom's site and the sheep
one
that Tiddy mentioned, there certainly seems to be a difference in the
way
that the tunes have been coded to play.
Your site and Tom's both look similar but the one Tiddy mentions uses
the
"bgsound" tag which may be why it plays and yours both don't.
This doesn't explain why your site and Tom's don't play. I wonder if
there
is an Internet Explorer setting that is blocking this kind of audio?
Hopefully someone else will be able to put their finger on the root
cause.
Cheers,
Jamie

Subject: [jaws-uk] JFW and wav files
Hi list,
Maybe a bit OT but as the list is quiet, I thought I'd throw this in to
see if anyone's got suggestions.
Acer Ferrari Laptop, jfw9, Realtech built in audio system, loads of Ram.
On my website at www.scottishblindgolf.com and Tom's
www.whitestick.co.uk we've got a short wav file in the head section of
our homepage html that plays for a few seconds as you open the site up.
On this laptop, these wavs don't play, jaws kicks in fairly quickly and
announces the website name and heads off into reading the contents of
the page etc as you'd expect.
Clicking on wavs mp3's etc around the web, they play no problem, so any
ideas why jaws stifles these on our websites? It's like the sound card
isn't getting the time to output the wavs and big bully jfw is taking
precedence?
Not life threatening, but one of those puzzzlers.
Kind regards,
