my javascript works in IE but not in Firefox :(

i basically have a couple songs that ive made on my site, and im using an onClick event to play each song. basically the onClick event calls the javascript function.

heres my javascript:

function playMusic(thisSong)
    {
        if(thisSong == 1)
        {
        document.getElementById('BGSOUNDID').src='blaze.mp3';
        }
        else if(thisSong == 2)
        {
        document.getElementById('BGSOUNDID').src='pianoman.mp3';
        }
        else if(thisSong == 3)
        {
        document.getElementById('BGSOUNDID').src='slow jam.mp3';
        }
 
    }
 
function stopMusic()
    {
        document.getElementById('BGSOUNDID').src=''
    }

heres my html:

 
<a onClick="playMusic(1)" style="cursor:pointer;">play</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; <a onClick="stopMusic()" style="cursor:pointer;">stop</a></br>
 
 
<a onClick="playMusic(2)" style="cursor:pointer;">play</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; <a onClick="stopMusic()" style="cursor:pointer;">stop</a></br>
 
<a onClick="playMusic(3)" style="cursor:pointer;">play</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; <a onClick="stopMusic()" style="cursor:pointer;">stop</a>
 
 

this works wonders in IE, of course, but not at all in FireFox ( and there are no errors in the error console when i've clicked the play/stop buttons)

any help getting this to work in Firefox would be greatly appreciated

thanks!

It's <br /> assuming xhtml.
If you are using xhtml, then onclick must be lower case.
Try that.

Heya, Hardcorey. Welcome to TSDN!

Have a look at this article.

i tried lowercasing the onClick...didnt do a thing for me...and PBMODS: this is a project so i really want to do this mostly by my lonesome, but i just didnt know if there were certain tags or elements in Javascript that wouldnt be recognized in Firefox...i talked to a friend last night, and he said it probably works in IE and not in Firefox (with no errors) b/c IE is calling up a player, most like WMP, and Firefox isnt doing this.

could this be true?
