SFNode [in, out] metadata NULL [X3DMetadataObject]

Metadata are not part of the X3D world and not interpreted by the X3D browser, but they can be accessed via the ECMAScript interface.

SFBool [in, out] enabled TRUE

Input/Output field enabled.

SFString [in, out] description ""

Author-provided text tooltip that tells users the expected action of this node.

Hint

Many XML tools substitute XML character references automatically if needed (such as & for & ampersand, or " for " quotation mark).

MFString [in, out] url [ ] [URI]

Location and filename of sound file or stream. Support for .wav format is required, .midi format is recommended, other formats are optional.

Hints

MFString arrays can have multiple values, so separate each individual string by quote marks. "http://www.web3d.org" "http://www.web3d.org/about" "etc." XML encoding for quotation mark " is " (which is called a character entity). Can replace embedded blank(s) in url queries with %20 for each blank character.

Warning

Strictly match directory and filename capitalization for http links! This is important for portability. Some operating systems are forgiving of capitalization mismatches, but http/https and other operating systems are not.
