Note: jQuery is a Java*Script* library. JavaScript is something totally different from Java. I edited the tags. — Jesper, May 27 '10 at 11:47

You can add an element with your sound to the page:

var sound = $('<embed autoplay="true" height="0" width="0" />');
sound.attr('src', urlOfMyMp3);
$('body').append(sound);

jPlayer is junk in Firefox. I do not recommend using it. – Plummer May 17 '13 at 05:51
