How to play MP3 audio with dynamic URL in HTML5 or JavaScript?

html5-audio, javascript

Solution

That's audio/mpeg, not audio/ogg, as seen from headers:

Content-Type:audio/mpeg

Try this:

<audio controls="controls">
  <source src="http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=en&q=Hello%2C+World" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>

Works in browsers that play mp3, like google chrome.

Problem

In JavaScript or HTML5, how to play MP3 audio with dynamic, rather than static, URL? Example - the following doesn't work: ``` <audio controls="controls"> <source src="http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=en&q=Hello%2C+World" type="audio/ogg"> </audio> ``` Thanks in advance!
