<button onclick= 'var a = document.getElementsByTagName("audio")[0]; if(a.paused)a.play();else a.pause()'>Play/Pause</button> <audio src="file:///sdcard/Sora-sound.mp3" ></audio> //Didn't test yet Pause audio element with .pause() play audio element with .play() //More: In The mobile browser. Audio is often played when onclick is fired

paused is property that return boolean. if audio is currently stop or not playing. This property return true .play() and .paused() are the function of audio element but checked....checked is attribute for <input> isn't it?
