Have you thought about using the HTML 5 <audio> tag?
Kyle, Yes, the HTML5 did the trick for Mozilla (using 3.6). It is fast and there is *no* delay and no page refresh. It just works. OK, so the *other* browsers don't yet implement it, but they should if they want to stay compliant. Koha primarily supports Firefox so this should not be an issue. They can play catch up. I just did the following: <!-- TMPL_IF NAME="soundon" --> <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> if ( get_cookie( "kohastaffsound" ) == "yes" ) { document.write('<audio src="/intranet-tmpl/prog/sound/beep.wav" autoplay autobuffer></audio>'); } </script> <!-- /TMPL_IF --> Sound on is the syspref. The HTML 5 autoplay and especially the autobuffer appear to make it work very nicely. Well, I have a bunch of open source sounds (Artistic Licence 2.0) so I can finish this up and have Galen "soundly" reject it!
