Question

How can you create an auto playlist with the audio tag from HTML5?

What I’m trying to achieve is a player with only the play/pause button big 30×25 px, the player autoplays when the page loads and when the song ends it’ll play the next song automatically. Trying to have 3-4 songs in a playlist.

Check out this post: using jquery + <audio> w/ php/mysql to loop playback times

var sfx = new Audio('sfx.wav');
var sounds = a.addTextTrack('metadata');

// add sounds we care about
sounds.addCue(new TextTrackCue('dog bark', 12.783, 13.612, '', '', '', true));
sounds.addCue(new TextTrackCue('kitten mew', 13.612, 15.091, '', '', '', true));

function playSound(id) {
  sfx.currentTime = sounds.getCueById(id).startTime;
  sfx.play();
}

I just updated this with a better example of using cues as specified here: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html
