Q.  What's the best way to embed an MP3 track in a page?

A.  I like this code because its pretty simple and seems
to work on nearly every browser:

$title<br>
<object type="audio/x-mp3" data="$file" width="300" height="45">
	<param name="src" value="$file">
	<param name="autoplay" value="false">
	<param name="autoStart" value="0">
	<!- Fallback -> <a href="$file">Play &gt;</a>
</object>

Replace $file with the path to you file - eg my_track.mp3
Replace $title with some text describing your track.
