Ive added a sound file to this page:
http://mgrover.coffeecup.com/Twinhorns.html
However it doesnt appear to be working, Ive uploaded the .wav file, and hopefully inserted the correct code onto the page, can anyone advise me on this problem. :)

The script is pointing to this.
http://mgrover.coffeecup.com/horn.wav
It needs to point here.
http://mgrover.coffeecup.com/sounds/horn.wav

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Your sound file, "horn.wav" (is this really what I think it is?), does not seem to be present in the root directory, where it is expected by your script.

This is probably just as well, though, since an auto-starting sound of a car horn could be a pretty horrible experience for your unsuspecting visitors, especially if the volume happens to be set high... :rolleyes:
I think most people find auto-starting sounds on websites quite irritating, even if it's not a car horn.
