title: How to play an audio file in the background after clicking a link? (no embed)
body: <p>Currently I am using following code to play some audio after a link is clicked:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="http://somehost.com/word_audio.ogg"&gt;Pronunciation of a word&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>For now if the user clicks on the link, a new page with an audio playing panel is loaded. After playing the audio, the user has to click <code>GO BACK</code> button of the browser to get back to the original content.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to play the audio without being directed to a new page? When the user clicks on the link, the audio just plays in the background?
   (Don't want to use embed because it's just a 1 second audio for a word's pronunciation as a minor explanation of an uncommon word).</p>
