In a little more detail, I want to have 5 buttons on the screen, one for English, French, Spanish, Greek and Latin. When I press the English button, the voice begins speaking in English. When I press the Greek button, the speaker will begin the next sentence, in the sequence, in Greek. And so on. The audio is currently in ogg format but I can convert it if necessary.

I have programmed Perl/CGI web pages before, on a Linux server. This was mainly the presentation of weather stats for various time periods. I'm not sure yet how this website will be hosted.

Flash isn't supported by certain platforms...

What I'm basically looking for is info regarding how this might be solved. Thanks!
