How to unable background sound

[fuliopen]

I put background sound with tag <bgsound src=''> in a page, and like to
give the visitor an option to unable it. Can this be accomplished? If
yes, what's the tag or command? Thanks.

Any sound on a web site should be disabled by default. Remove the
proprietary <bgsound> element, although luckily it will only work for
certain browsers (and mine isn't one of them). Add a link to the sound
as you would any other file, <a href="...">Listen to my sound!</a>.

Please disable your sound!!! There are only a few things
in the web which are as annoying as web site sounds!!!
