Node.js将html启动到localhost：8000，如何在该html文件中调用.mp3 / .mp4文件

Question

I am using node.js to launch an HTML file to display on the localhost:8000.
None of the media files that the HTML calls work. The HTML works fine when I launch it from the windows icon. I assume that I need to change how the media files are called.

I have tried moving the media files into the native folder.

//This is how I call the HTML.

var http = require('http'),
fs = require('fs');



fs.readFile('./index.html', function (err, html) {
    if (err) {
        throw err; 
    }       
    http.createServer(function(request, response) {  
        response.writeHeader(200, {"Content-Type": "text/html"});  
        response.write(html);  
        response.end();  
    }).listen(8000);
 });


 //This is how the media file is called in the HTML (index.html).

 <audio id="Whistle" src="C:\Site\Whistle.mp3" preload="auto" ></audio>

There is javascript in the HTML file that "plays" the file.

I am not getting any error messages from node.js or the web browser. It just isn't calling the file and moving on.

That's surprising because C:/... isn't a valid path. Rember that it is resolved on the client side , and there you don't have access to the servers file system. You also don't have access to the local file system the browser is running on for security reasons.

For sure you could send a request to the server instead, then the server could answer with a sound file.
