I’m just a beginner.. How to play a video or audio using the anchor tag?
I used the tag n it played normally… I used the n it played… But when I anchor it:
<html>
<a href ="D:\Owl City\Owl City - All Things Bright and Beautiful [iTumrd Bonus Track Version]-AAC-(2011)\13 Alligator Sky (No Rap Version).m4a"> Click here! </a>
</html>
It launched WMP or VLC… Is it possible to play it without launching other applications?
You can use HTML5 tags, like video or audio . It’s fairly easy to customize. See this example.
Be aware that old browsers don’t support HTML5 and that you need different versions of the files for a couple of browsers. It’s all explained on the linked sites.
What you are doing now is using the a tag to link a file. This will not embed the content in your website, but opens a player on your computer.
