// OK to use if this notice is included

// This function reads an MP3 URL and title from the referring page and generates embedding code to play back the audio file.

// Windows browsers (except for Internet Explorer) will play back the file with the Windows Media Player *plugin.* Internet Explorer will use Windows Media Player.

// Non-Windows browsers will play back the file with their standard audio handler for the MIME type audio/mpeg. On Macs, that handler will usually be QuickTime.



var audioFolder = ""; // If you have a default audio directory, e.g., http://www.your-media-hosting-site.com/sounds/, you can put it here to make links on the referring page shorter.



function embedPlayer(MP3title,MP3URL) { 

   // Get Operating System 

   var isWin = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("windows") != -1;

   if (isWin) { // Use MIME type application/x-mplayer2

      visitorOS="Windows";

   } else { // Use MIME type audio/mpeg, audio/x-wav, etc.

      visitorOS="Other";

   }



   var audioURL = audioFolder + MP3URL;

   var objTypeTag = "application/x-mplayer2"; // The MIME type to load the WMP plugin in non-IE browsers on Windows

   if (visitorOS != "Windows") { objTypeTag = "audio/mpeg"}; // The MIME type for Macs and Linux
