hello i am abit new in client side programming and html,
i am trying to excute the following line in firefox and other browsers , the code should
play a sound, problem is that the code works and play the sound on IE and Chrome but not on firefox here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type">
<title>Untitled 1</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function playsound()
{
var sound= document.getElementById("check");
sound.play();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<audio id = "check" preload = "auto">
<source src = "check.mp3" type = "audio/mpeg"></audio>
<input type="button" onclick="playsound()" value="play">
The fact is that firefox and opera do not support mp3 files in html5 audio tag. You can check supported browser in w3schools. Its work around is that you need a fallback flash audio player.
