in thread Play audio on a web page

Thanks for the update. I don't think that there is a catch all solution for your question, catering for every browser/plugin set. One approach would be to provide various solutions (it would be easier if you were using a templating system such as HTML::Template or Template::Toolkit) catering for a cross section of platforms/browsers and redirect to them based on browser/plugin detection.

    Javascript and Html 5 is yer only man!
      quite correct...client (browser) side technologies. the specification doesn't mention anything that needs to be done on server side, which is where perl runs. the perl can present CGI/html/etc to the browser via a web server..but it still runs server side, and doesn't interact directly with browser. javascript/html/flash etc work on the browser/client side.
      the hardest line to type correctly is: stty erase ^H
