volume (HTML attribute)
Example
<bgsound src="50_005a08.wav" volume="-4000"/>
Description
Sets the volume of the audio file.
Value
Value between
"-10000" and "0" where, strangely, 0
is full volume (it may be preferable to think of
volume as ‘amount of volume reduction’. Note that
in tests, a value of "-5000" did not appear to be
equivalent to halving the volume.
