Trying to <embed> sound

I'm really stumped.
I am trying to create a web site to honor my late son's heavy metal
band.
I want the mp3 music to play and lyrics to be displayed.
The problem seems to be in getting the sound in there.
I have tried <embed) and <bgsoundbut run into problems.
The best I have had any luck at all with is this:

<embed src="http://www.thewebsite. org/myjukebox_files/song.mp3"
hidden="True" autostart="true ">
<noembed>
<bgsound src="http://www.thewebsite. org/myjukebox_files/song.mp3"
hidden="true" autostart="true ">
</noembed>

With this (and several other variations) I find it works fine in
Internet Explorer but not in Mozilla Firefox or Netscape.
Mozilla gives me this error:

Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page.

I have installed every plugin I can find but still get no sound plus
that error message.
I would classify my HTML skill level as "Beginner but eager to
learn" and any help at all will be appreciated.

The author of the panoramas has made two versions of each: One in MOV format, which needs a Quicktime plugin, and one Java applet. He's also kindly supplied me with sample HTML code for each. The code looks like this (simplified):

When I use an embed tag that uses a dynamic aspx page, the dynamic aspx page appears to get called 2 times instead. Below is code that adds an embed tag to a placeholder control that will use a second aspx page to generate the svg for the embed. svgchart.Controls.Clear(); string strSRC = "./DesktopModules/Enterprise/BusinessRuleSVG.aspx";

Hi. I have a page that dynamically creates an <embed> tag. Several users are running the site using IE 6.0 without problems, but on just one user the sound won't play. That's the code that creates the tag: Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim embAlert As New HtmlGenericControl("embed")

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
