First, purrs for the anniversary of Nikki's passage. I tried loading
the page on Firefox here at work and found that it needed the plugin for
WAV media files, even though I already have Windows Media Player on my
computer. Firefox said it wanted the Apple Quicktime plugin, so I had
to download and install that (
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download).
It setup the WAV file association in Firefox to use Quicktime to play
downloaded WAVs and I could hear the purr. I then changed the download
action to play with the default player (Tools - Options - Downloads -
View & Edit Actions), changed the WAV action from Quicktime to Open with
Default Application (Windows Media Player), saved the settings, closed
firefox & restarted it. Now I get Nikki's purr playing embedded via
WMP. I'm not very familiar with Firefox - I'd like to manually create
file associations so I wouldn't have to download something and just use
an app I already have.


I've tried downloading Quicktime a number of times, but Firefox still
claims that the plug-in is unavailable. I followed the steps you
suggested, but there was no WAV in the list. There's WMA, WAX and WVX,
but no WAV. Thank you for going to all this trouble to help, though!

know what it's like to look up and see six cat butts facing you?


LOL! I can only imagine.

Marina, this is the html tag I used to embed the .wav file (which will
automatically play in IE as you veiw the picture): embed autostart="true"
src="nikkipurring2.wav" hidden="true" controller="false" loop="true"

Thanks, Lori! I think I have to change it into some other format since
my Firefox refuses to recognize WAV files.

Me too Marina. I looked at Nikki's tribute page again and she was a
beautiful much-loved companion. We are sending lots of purrs your way.

Thank you, Adrian. I've been thinking about my baby girl a lot, and I
updated Nikki's page a little.

Thank you for the link. I hadn't seen the first picture before, of
Nikki standing on the pillory. She's so cute! Such whiskers! Such
eyes! Such ears!

Well, Firefox is lying. I use Firefox myself, and have watched
many QT videos. Wish I could help you figure out how to make it work
in yours.
