This is my code below in onclick event of button. Attached is the screenshot of the tada.wav file location.
It looks this time I coded properly. But still no success.
var sound = new Audio('/test/tada.wav');
sound.play();
Thanks.

I don't see anything obvious wrong with what you posted.
What is the error? Have you looked in the browser's developer tools to see what the error is?

I just looked and found following error message in Console tab:
"MEDIA12899: AUDIO/VIDEO: Unknown MIME type:"

According to this page:
https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_audio.asp IE does not support WAV files.

Yes, if you still use Internet Explorer (which Microsoft has discontinued, and wants people to stop using) then you may have to use an MP3 file instead of WAV. But, it should work fine in other browsers.

.MP3 works with both IE and Chrome and .WAV works with Chrome.
Thank you all for your patience and help.
