Need help setting up Podcasting / Audio player
 
I've been looking at different ways to add a small audio player at different places on my site. I am particularly interested in keeping it browser friendly.

Whether it's called an audio player or a podcast does not matter. It will consist of minimal controls and only show as a small this strip.

The code I tried to go with is missing something because it won't even show ...

Code:
<audio controls>
<source src="horse.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
<source src="horse.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
<embed height="50" width="100" src="horse.mp3">
</audio>
What am I missing?

*Update

This code works ...

Code:
<object height="50" width="100" data="sample.mp3"></object>
but, according to w3schools.com ....
  • Different browsers support different audio formats
  • If a browser does not support the file format, the audio will not play without a plug-in
  • If the plug-in is not installed on the users' computer, the audio will not play
That site says the best code to use is the first one I noted as not working.


Any help greatly appreciated.

Audio/Video are supported in HTML5, do you have this
HTML Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
?

In the head of the page?
If so I have this ...
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Yes, in the head. You have HTML 4.1 ...

So, should the first code I listed work? Because it's not for some reason.

I think you have to change your existing doctype to the doctype mokujin posted.
So go to your style variable editor and change the htmldoctype value.
