Play audio using an input button

I'm trying to play audio when a user clicks on a button. I'm passing the sound file to a function. The question is programmed using free format.

The audio file is defined in the HTML tag as follows:


<embed src="../graphics/sound/audio1.mp3"  width=0 height=0 name="soundfile" >

Here is the code for the button defined in the body of the HTML.


<input type="button" name="apb" value="Play Audio" onClick="EvalSound('sound1')">

Here is my function code located in the HTML <head> tag section:


<script>
function EvalSound(soundobj) {

  var thissound = document.getElementById(soundobj);

  thissound.Play();
   
}
</script>
