Hi Aany,
Thanks - I like to try and point people towards as way of doing
things, as well as saying "you need to do this".

I think there might be some confusion here - .wav is a very, very old
(30 years or so) format which CDs use, and is often used by audio
editors when mixing together or producing tracks.
It needs to be changed to a codec suitable for streaming first.
For example, with a wav, what you are doing is the same as, for
example, sending someone a picture as a bmp, or trying to squeeze HD
tv down an analogue modem, or uploading a video in raw microsoft avi.
So, for example, for photographs, we use jph
For graphics, we use png
For video, we use mp4, wmv etc
And for audio, we use mp3 or ogg to be compatible with html5 audio
If, for some reason, you cannot upload and mp3, then convert it to
mp3, change the extension to wav, then change the server settings to
serve a wav as an mp3, and change the jplayer file to see wav as mp3.
However, I don't know if this would work with other browsers, or the
flash fallback.
HTML5 support in IE is patchy, no support for native video or audio.

Although it's rather out of date, I think the general principles of
what is supported by which browser, is the same.
Of course, if you want to just upload a wav, then any ftp or web
sharing server will do, but I doubt you'll ever get it to stream -
it'd be like asking people to encode their downloads in Sinclair ZX
Spectrum tape format!
