Post .Wav files posting....little help please

If I find a .wav file on the internet that I want to include in a post (like some of you do [and, btw, they're HILARIOUS!], how do I do that? First I download it to my computer, right? Okay, I know how to do that. Or do I even have to do that? Either way, how do I then get it into a post? Thank you in advance for helping this severely mentally retarded chimpanzee!

1: Get some web space
2: Upload the wav file to that web space
3: Post your thread and in it use the HTML <embed> tag and reference the wav file.

I am goign to be honest I am only guessing this because I have never actually done it myself

use background sound, e.g.,

<bgsound src="http://www.myfiles.com/wavs/eatme.wav">

Try to keep them very small, and don't post more than one in a thread.

Yes. Get yourself some webspace (www.geocities.com - for example) and upload your sound files to it with FTP (an excellent tutorial on uploading files with ftp (file transfer protocol) may be found here if you've never done it before).

Them, when you are typing your post you will need to include the HTML code. Either use the one MstrG gave you or, to get around pesky differences between the way Netscape and Internet Explorer handle these things, use this:

<EMBED SRC="http://www.yourwebspace.com/yourplace/filename.wav" AUTOSTART=TRUE>

If you sign up to geocities, for example, that code could look like:

<EMBED SRC="http://www.geocities.com/GFY/funny1.wav" AUTOSTART=TRUE>

Any more questions, you know where to come.

------------------------
and so on ...

Thank you Spooky, MstrG and Pangloss!

[the next day:] Guys, I did it! I came back here to show you what I did, but then when it didn't work here I remembered that it wouldn't work right here in this particular thread, if I remember correctly. Anyhow, I went to that other test area and it did work. So, thanks again! Hopefully (CROSSES FINGERS!), my posts can have more fun stuff in them and more variety. After all, if you're boring, that's boring!
