html5 audio element

using this code below:

<audio controls>
<source src="/nurmkana/file_download/4/nurmkana-haalitsus.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>

only browser which starts to play is chrome 27. no firefox 22, opera 12.16. os is winxp sp3.

can you test here with your browser and let me know? its grey partridge who is singing

Re: html5 audio element

The audio tag has good support but you need to provide an Ogg or WAV version for Opera 12 and Firefox (since they don’t support mpeg3), like so:

<audio controls>
  <source src="http://philwareham.co.uk/audio/nokia_dead.mp3">
  <source src="http://philwareham.co.uk/audio/nokia_dead.ogg">
</audio>

Re: html5 audio element

As stated in the supported browsers link I posted above, Android 2.2 doesn’t recognise the HTML5 audio tag. Android 2.3 was the first to support it.
