Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

This module is a simple wrapper for the audio.js library, making it easier to implement cross-browser MP3 audio on your Drupal site.

Audio.js provides a flash fallback which essentially allows you to use the native HTML5 tags anywhere, without having to worry about browsers that don't support HTML5 tags (i.e. older browsers) or lack support for MP3 playback (i.e. Firefox, at least as of now); these browsers will automatically degrade to the flash player, allowing you to avoid writing extra code for cross-browser compatibility.

BEFORE INSTALLATION
You must first download the audio.js library here: http://kolber.github.com/audiojs/

Extract the audiojs archive and copy the contents into your Drupal libraries directory, so that the library itself (typically audio.js, or audio.min.js for the minified version) can be found at the path specified on the module configuration page (admin/config/media/html5_audio).

It's recommended that you place the entire contents of the extracted archive in sites/all/libraries/audiojs, creating the "libraries" directory if it does not already exist.

Note that the Audio.js library currently supports MP3 audio only.
