   Can't seem to find anything on linking to and playing audio files in Web site.  Anyone her can steer me in the right direction? Currently using the 'file download' widget but would prefer a solution that plays the file without opening the player page...

Thanks;

Speedy (not so) Charly

	You can download this element from my web site and use it: https://denislafrance.net/Element/Audio.en.htm Don't forget that the latest HTML standards are preventing autoplay on audio files and the browsers are complying. Edited by Hobby001 - Feb 24 2023 at 10:57am

	Downloaded and tried your solution, here is what I did with it; Etoiles du saloon (radiodesfestivals.ca) It works fine, but is that a work in progress? I see a lot of room for added functionalities here; • Setting initial volume • Play once/loop switch • Ability to change audio file at will • Maybe offering various skins • Resizable • Ability to switch controls on/off (save for play/pause, of course) • Maybe also ability to change color of player elements and/or selecting an image to replace the white player area... But thanks all the same, it is still a nice improvement over what I was doing at first. Speedy

	I simply translated the HTML standard audio tag into an OE elememt. Browsers are interpreting the audio tag with limited flexibility. Some of your requirements are not available at all in html. Some are but since I am doing this on a volunteer base and do not get any money from it. I limit the time spent to work on it.
