What in the world is wrong with this script?

I need to find out what the devil is wrong with this script. This script is telling Internet Explorer (IE) to download the mp3 instead of play it in the background!

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;

soundclip = &quot;sounds/dancewolf-22-24m.mp3&quot;;

if (navigator.appName == &quot;Netscape&quot {
if( navigator.mimeTypes[&quot;audio/mp3&quot;].enabledPlugin != null ){
tag = '<embed src = &quot;' + soundclip + '&quot; autostart=True hidden=True loop=1 type=audio/mp3 >';
document.write(tag);
}
}
else{
tag = '<bgsound src = &quot;' + soundclip + '&quot;>';
document.write(tag);
}
// --></script> Let freedom ring!

I am not absolutely positive but i think you need to change the quotes around (soundclip)
from : &quot;' + soundclip + '&quot;
to: ' + soundclip + '
then:....
the resulting variable (tag) would then look like this :

'<embed src='sounds/dancewolf-22-24m.mp3' autostart=True hidden=True loop=1 type=audio/mp3 >';


do this to both occurences of soundclip in the script

justjim,
What is happening is this: Download Accelerator by Speedbit prompts me to download Regular or Accelerated. I cancel the order THEN the sound cashes and plays. Hummm. I remember coding the background sounds in a 10 web page presentation. The only problem? when page 2, 3, 4, 5 loaded the sound stopped so the presentation only had music on the first page. I went to Flash and solved the problem only the size of the 3:33 presentation loads in 270 seconds! That's not what I'm trying to do here. I disected 45 and 50 second clips through Goldwave and want these clips to be background sounds. Hummm! I'm going to look at my archives to see what I did in the past. Thanks anyway. . .
