Excellent find, thank you. As a bit of repayment, do the following to loop the sound : Change the play: function to : play: function(url, loopNumber, options) then change this bit of code : var element = $.browser.msie ? $('<bgsound/>').attr({ src: options.url, loop: 1, autostart: true }) : $(this.template(options.url)); to be : var element = $.browser.msie ? $('<bgsound/>').attr({ src: options.url, loop: loopNumber, autostart: true }) : $(this.template(options.url)); I think that should work, although I've not tested it (I'm playing with adding in a length of track option that works).
