Audio Files

[tonylundervold90]

I am in the process of finalizing a website but seem to be having some problems with my audio files. It plays fine on my computer but other people are unable to get them to play.....any thoughts? www.jhsample.pcriot.com/albums.html

Many people especially those who do not use an iPad or Mac refuse to have the Apple Quicktime player on their PC because it's a memory hog.

The new HTML5 audio tag can be used to overcome this problem see this demo the downside being you need both an mp3 audio file and an one in the OGG format of the same track. This ensures whereever the web page ends up being displayed one of the files should play inside the browser (strictly speaking a third one is needed in flv format for older browser support)
