</div>I'm assuming your web server knows how to deal with .html5 files.<br>
<br>
In your code sample above there's no <head></head>, and there's no<br>
<html></html>. This would cause the file to not be valid html, and<br>
could easily make the browser freak out. Here's the proper code:<br>
<br>
<br>
<!DOCTYPE html5><br>
<html><br>
<head><br>
<title>Bob's awesome audio</title><br>
</head><br>
<div class="im"> <body><br>
<audio controls="controls"><br>
<source src="kk.mp3" type="audio/mp3" /><br>
Your browser does not support the audio tag.<br>
</audio><br>
</body><br>
</html><br>
<br>
</div>Indenting is not necessary, I just did it for clarity.<br>
<br>
Keep in mind that Firefox won't play mp3's and I don't think IE will<br>
play ogg. That's why they made it possible, and suggest, that you put<br>
source tags for both audio formats. The browser plays the one it can.<br>
<br>
All that said, you might want to check out <a href="http://mediaelementjs.com/" target="_blank">http://mediaelementjs.com/</a><br>
<br>
It's a small javascript app that detects browsers nicely and makes an<br>
html5 player with the proper file format and falls back to flash when<br>
the browser can't do html5.<br>
