Here s how I get it to beep using HTML5  First I copy and convert the windows wav file to mp3  then I use this code   var  beep   window Audio  Content Custom Beep mp3    function playBeep      beep play       It s faster to declare the sound file globally and refer to it as needed

As we read in this answer  HTML5 will solve this for you if you re open to that route  HTML5 audio is supported in all modern browsers   Here s a copy of the example   var snd   new Audio  file wav       buffers automatically when created snd play

It s not possible to do directly in JavaScript  You ll need to embed a short WAV file in the HTML  and then play that via code   An Example    lt script gt  function PlaySound soundObj      var sound   document getElementById soundObj     sound Play       lt  script gt    lt embed src  success wav  autostart  false  width  0  height  0  id  sound1  enablejavascript  true  gt    You would then call it from JavaScript code as such   PlaySound  sound1      This should do exactly what you want - you ll just need to find create the beep sound yourself  which should be trivial

There s no crossbrowser way to achieve this with pure javascript  Instead you could use a small  wav file that you play using embed or object tags

Now it easy enough with JavaScript AudioContext API  It fully supported by major desktop and mobile web browsers     let context   null   const beep    freq   520  duration   200  vol   100    gt        const oscillator   context createOscillator        const gain   context createGain        oscillator connect gain       oscillator frequency value   freq      oscillator type    square       gain connect context destination       gain gain value   vol   0 01      oscillator start context currentTime       oscillator stop context currentTime   duration   0 001      document querySelector  button   addEventListener  click   function          context   new AudioContext        beep          I wrote a small application that plays music from the Mario game without any audio file  just runtime  In my opinion it   s interesting  you can see the source code and listen it

Solution  You can now use base64 files to produce sounds when imported as data URI  The solution is almost the same as the previous ones  except you do not need to import an external audio file   function beep         var snd   new Audio  data audio wav base64   uQRAAAAWMSLwUIYAAsYkXgoQwAEaYLWfkWgAI0wWs ItAAAGDgYtAgAyN QWaAAihwMWm4G8QQRDiMcCBcH3Cc CDv 7xA4Tvh9Rz y8QADBwMWgQAZG ILNAARQ4GLTcDeIIIhxGOBAuD7hOfBB3 94gcJ3w o5 5eIAIAAAVwWgQAVQ2ORaIQwEMAJiDg95G4nQL7mQVWI6GwRcfsZAcsKkJvxgxEjzFUgfHoSQ9Qq7KNwqHwuB13MA4a1q DmBrHgPcmjiGoh  EwC5nGPEmS4RcfkVKOhJf WOgoxJclFz3kgn  dBA ya1GhurNn8zb  9NNutNuhz31f    9vt   z IdAEAAAK4LQIAKobHItEIYCGAExBwe8jcToF9zIKrEdDYIuP2MgOWFSE34wYiR5iqQPj0JIeoVdlG4VD4XA67mAcNa1fhzA1jwHuTRxDUQ  iYBczjHiTJcIuPyKlHQkv LHQUYkuSi57yQT  uggfZNajQ3Vmz Zt   mm3Wm3Q576v     32   5 EOgAAADVghQAAAAA  uQZAUAB1WI0PZugAAAAAoQwAAAEk3nRd2qAAAAACiDgAAAAAAABCqEEQRLCgwpBGMlJkIz8jKhGvj4k6jzRnqasNKIeoh5gI7BJaC1A1AoNBjJgbyApVS4IDlZgDU5WUAxEKDNmmALHzZp0Fkz1FMTmGFl1FMEyodIavcCAUHDWrKAIA4aa2oCgILEBupZgHvAhEBcZ6joQBxS76AgccrFlczBvKLC0QI2cBoCFvfTDAo7eoOQInqDPBtvrDEZBNYN5xwNwxQRfw8ZQ5wQVLvO8OYU mHvFLlDh05Mdg7BT6YrRPpCBznMB2r  xKJjyyOh cImr2 4doscwD6neZjuZR4AgAABYAAAABy1xcdQtxYBYYZdifkUDgzzXaXn98Z0oi9ILU5mBjFANmRwlVJ3 6jYDAmxaiDG3 6xjQQCCKkRb 6kg wW kSJ5  rLobkLSiKmqP 0ikJuDaSaSf 6JiLYLEYnW  kXg1WRVJL 9EmQ1YZIsv 6Qzwy5qk7  tEU0nkls3 zIUMPKNX 6yZLf kFgAfgGyLFAUwY  uQZAUABcd5UiNPVXAAAApAAAAAE0VZQKw9ISAAACgAAAAAVQIygIElVrFkBS Jhi EAuu lKAkYUEIsmEAEoMeDmCETMvfSHTGkF5RWH7kz ESHWPAq kcCRhqBtMdokPdM7vil7RG98A2sc7zO6ZvTdM7pmOUAZTnJW NXxqmd41dqJ6mLTXxrPpnV8avaIf5SvL7pndPvPpndJR9Kuu8fePvuiuhorgWjp7Mf PRjxcFCPDkW31srioCExivv9lcwKEaHsf 7ow2Fl1T 9RkXgEhYElAoCLFtMArxwivDJJ bR1HTKJdlEoTELCIqgEwVGSQ hIm0NbK8WXcTEI0UPoa2NbG4y2K00JEWbZavJXkYaqo9CRHS55FcZTjKEk3NKoCYUnSQ0rWxrZbFKbKIhOKPZe1cJKzZSaQrIyULHDZmV5K4xySsDRKWOruanGtjLJXFEmwaIbDLX0hIPBUQPVFVkQkDoUNfSoDgQGKPekoxeGzA4DUvnn4bxzcZrtJyipKfPNy5w 9lnXwgqsiyHNeSVpemw4bWb9psYeq  uQZBoABQt4yMVxYAIAAAkQoAAAHvYpL5m6AAgAACXDAAAAD59jblTirQe9upFsmZbpMudy7Lz1X1DYsxOOSWpfPqNX2WqktK0DMvuGwlbNj44TleLPQ Gsfb GOWOKJoIrWb3cIMeeON6lz2umTqMXV8Mj30yWPpjoSa9ujK8SyeJP5y5mOW1D6hvLepeveEAEDo0mgCRClOEgANv3B9a6fikgUSu DmAMATrGx7nng5p5iimPNZsfQLYB2sDLIkzRKZOHGAaUyDcpFBSLG9MCQALgAIgQs2YunOszLSAyQYPVC2YdGGeHD2dTdJk1pAHGAWDjnkcLKFymS3RQZTInzySoBwMG0QueC3gMsCEYxUqlrcxK6k1LQQcsmyYeQPdC2YfuGPASCBkcVMQQqpVJshui1tkXQJQV0OXGAZMXSOEEBRirXbVRQW7ugq7IM7rPWSZyDlM3IuNEkxzCOJ0ny2ThNkyRai1b6ev  3dzNGzNb  4uAvHT5sURcZCFcuKLhOFs8mLAAEAt4UWAAIABAAAAAB4qbHo0tIjVkUU  uQZAwABfSFz3ZqQAAAAAngwAAAE1HjMp2qAAAAACZDgAAAD5UkTE1UgZEUExqYynN1qZvqIOREEFmBcJQkwdxiFtw0qEOkGYfRDifBui9MQg4QAHAqWtAWHoCxu1Yf4VfWLPIM2mHDFsbQEVGwyqQoQcwnfHeIkNt9YnkiaS1oizycqJrx4KOQjahZxWbcZgztj2c49nKmkId44S71j0c8eV9yDK6uPRzx5X18eDvjvQ6yKo9ZSS6l  8elePK Lf  IInrOF FvDoADYAGBMGb7FtErm5MXMlmPAJQVgWta7Zx2go 8xJ0UiCb8LHHdftWyLJE0QIAIsI UbXu67dZMjmgDGCGl1H vpF4NSDckSIkk7Vd sxEhBQMRU8j 12UIRhzSaUdQ rQU5kGeFxm hb1oh6pWWmv3uvmReDl0UnvtapVaIzo1jZbf pD6ElLqSX rUmOQNpJFa r sa4e pBlAABoAAAAA3CUgShLdGIxsY7AUABPRrgCABdDuQ5GC7DqPQCgbbJUAoRSUj NIEig0YfyWUho1VBBBA  uQZB4ABZx5zfMakeAAAAmwAAAAF5F3P0w9GtAAACfAAAAAwLhMDmAYWMgVEG1U0FIGCBgXBXAtfMH10000EEEEEECUBYln03TTTdNBDZopopYvrTTdNa325mImNg3TTPV9q3pmY0xoO6bv3r00y IDGid 9aaaZTGMuj9mpu9Mpio1dXrr5HERTZSmqU36A3CumzN 9Robv Xx4v9ijkSRSNLQhAWumap82WRSBUqXStV YcS XVLnSS WLDroqArFkMEsAS eWmrUzrO0oEmE40RlMZ5 ODIkAyKAGUwZ3mVKmcamcJnMW26MRPgUw6j LkhyHGVGYjSUUKNpuJUQoOIAyDvEyG8S5yfK6dhZc0Tx1KI gviKL6qvvFs1 bWtaz58uUNnryq6kt5RzOCkPWlVqVX2a EEBUdU1KrXLf40GoiiFXK   qpoiDXrOgqDR38JB0bw7SoL ZB9o1RCkQjQ2CBYZKd  VJxZRRZlqSkKiws0WFxUyCwsKiMy7hUVFhIaCrNQsKkTIsLivwKKigsj8XYlwt WKi2N4d  uQRCSAAjURNIHpMZBGYiaQPSYyAAABLAAAAAAAACWAAAAApUF Mg 0aohSIRobBAsMlO  Kk4soosy1JSFRYWaLC4qZBYWFRGZdwqKiwkNBVmoWFSJkWFxX4FFRQWR LsS4W rFRb                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 VEFHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAU291bmRib3kuZGUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMjAwNGh0dHA6Ly93d3cuc291bmRib3kuZGUAAAAAAAAAACU           snd play      beep      Compatibility  Data URI is supported on almost every browser now  More information on http   caniuse com datauri  Demo  http   jsfiddle net 7EAgz   Conversion Tool  And here is where you can convert mp3 or wav files into Data URI format   https   dopiaza org tools datauri index php

The top answer was correct at the time but is now wrong  you can do it in pure javascript  But the one answer using javascript doesn t work any more  and the other answers are pretty limited or don t use pure javascript   I made my own solution that works well and lets you control the volume  frequency  and wavetype     if you have another AudioContext class use that one  as some browsers have a limit var audioCtx   new  window AudioContext    window webkitAudioContext    window audioContext      All arguments are optional     duration of the tone in milliseconds  Default is 500   frequency of the tone in hertz  default is 440   volume of the tone  Default is 1  off is 0    type of tone  Possible values are sine  square  sawtooth  triangle  and custom  Default is sine    callback to use on end of tone function beep duration  frequency  volume  type  callback        var oscillator   audioCtx createOscillator        var gainNode   audioCtx createGain         oscillator connect gainNode       gainNode connect audioCtx destination        if  volume  gainNode gain value   volume       if  frequency  oscillator frequency value   frequency       if  type  oscillator type   type       if  callback  oscillator onended   callback        oscillator start audioCtx currentTime       oscillator stop audioCtx currentTime     duration    500    1000         Someone suggested I edit this to note it only works on some browsers  However Audiocontext seems to be supported on all modern browsers  as far as I can tell  It isn t supported on IE  but that has been discontinued by Microsoft  If you have any issues with this on a specific browser please report it
