The WAV file which was playing on the internet does not play now

Hi,

The website has a WAV file which played on the web before I made changes and it plays on my computer when I click on the index.htm file that I changed.
However, when I FTP that index.htm file to update the website; the file no longer plays. It displays as still being in the website folder and I tried copying it from my desktop to the website again and it still doesn't work. The BGSOUND tag is still in the index.htm file.
I did remove a different BGSOUND tag from the other pages because it was annoying, but when I replaced it on one of those pages on my computer, it works, and when I FTP the program with the addition, it fails to work on the website.What can I do to fix this? It's my last remaining problem regarding my updates to the website. This site doesn't allow me to upload the file.

Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Mary

Possibly your chmod for the file is changing with the ftp, so check that.
Otherwise, all I can think of is it's to do with your browser. Have you tried on another browser and cleared your cache?

I don't know what the chmod for the file is, but the WAV file was already stored on the website and I don't know how to clear a cache. Can you be more specific?

Thanks,
Mary

@CdnRebel
chmod is a unix programme that sets the permissions for a specific file. i.e. if the permission is set to "000" no-one (owner, group, other) is allowed to read, write or execute the file.

@CdnRebel
go to the browser settings, search for cache, press "delete cache".

e.g. Firefox: Firefox >> Settings…* >> Advanced > cache > (empty now)

* or ⌘, (my sytem’s shortcut for this)
