Straight copy my code and paste, tried it in your phone! <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> </head> <body> <audio controls> <source src="http://handydesign.webutu.com/song/Smile.mp3" type="audio/mpeg"> <source src="http://handydesign.webutu.com/song/Smile.ogg" type="audio/ogg"> </audio> </body> </html> I just tried this in my website with my computer too!

Should be like this: <audio controls> <source src="storage/emulated/0/download/Converted_file_3de6a671.mp3" type="audio/m3"> <source src="storage/emulated/0/download/Converted_file_3de6a671_1.ogg" type="audio/ogg"> </audio> Make sure you have Converted_file_3de6a671.mp3 and Converted_file_3de6a671_1.ogg !

can you let me know where your HTML file located? src attribute required the "storage" folder was located in same file of HTML Makesure your source file location is correct!

Im just "Having a try" in the audio tutorial. Im not entirely sure what you mean by where is the html saved. Do u mean when I save it to my ph from the notepad? If so then both files and the html file are in the same folder. It seems im going wrong somewhere around this point because i don't understand it

erm can you move the audio file (both Converted_file_3de6a671.mp3 and Converted_file_3de6a671_1.ogg) to the same folder of the HTML! and tried this following code: <audio controls> <source src="Converted_file_3de6a671.mp3" type="audio/m3"> <source src="Converted_file_3de6a671_1.ogg" type="audio/ogg"> </audio>
