after much web searching

i selected THIS code
seems as the browser wars are STILL an issue !

<embed src="http://www. my site.com/Oasis/spa.mp3" autostart="true" loop="true" hidden="true">
</embed>
<noembed>
<bgsound src="http://www.my site .com/Oasis/spa.mp3" loop="infinite"/>
</noembed>
</head>

sound AUTO PLAY FAST in Chrome
Firefox asked my permission to play
IE auto started in about 5 secs

anyway

SEEMS to work ok
my reading said HTML 5 has better solution ???
