My understanding is that AUTOPLAY, LOOP, and HIDDEN are specific to the LiveAudio plug-in that comes built in to Netscape 3 and 4.

If a plugin is not found for the <EMBED> tag then windows should embed an OLE-compliant application such as the Media Player that comes with Windows for both Netscape and IE.

My questions is what about MAC users? Are you listening Carolyn? Did you notice that in the example I sited they used the following for browsers who did not recongize the <EMBED> tag:

<NOEMBED><A HREF="atune.mid">Click here to hear</A></NOEMBED>

They defined the <NOEMBED> as Alternate text or images to be shown to users who do not have a plug-in installed or are using browsers that don't recognize the <EMBED> tag. (Not part of the official HTML standard.)

I wonder how necessary this is today?
