lt audio src   music good enough mp3  gt   lt p gt If you are reading this  it is because your browser does not support the audio element       lt  p gt   lt  audio gt    and if you want the controls   lt audio src   music good enough mp3  controls gt   lt p gt If you are reading this  it is because your browser does not support the audio element  lt  p gt   lt  audio gt    and also using embed   lt embed src   music good enough mp3  width  180  height  90  loop  false  autostart  false  hidden  true    gt

With me the problem was solved by removing the type attribute    lt embed name  myMusic  loop  true  hidden  true  src  Music mp3  gt  lt  embed gt    Cerntainly not the cleanest way   If you re using HTML5  MP3 isn t supported by Firefox  Wav and Ogg are though  Here you can find an overview of which browser support which type of audio  http   www w3schools com html html5 audio asp
