Question

I need to playing .Wav sound after success some stuff.I tried this one but its not working in IE7,IE8 and Safari whats wrong here?

var currentFile = "";
function playAudio() {
        var oAudio = document.getElementById('myaudio');

        // See if we already loaded this audio file.
        if (jQuery("#audiofile").val() !== currentFile) {

            oAudio.src = jQuery("#audiofile").val();
            currentFile = jQuery("#audiofile").val();

        }

            var test = jQuery("#myaudio");
            test.src = jQuery("#audiofile").val();
            oAudio.play();   
    }


    if (Modernizr.audio) {
            if (Modernizr.audio.wav) {
               jQuery("#audiofile").val("sound/smw_save_menu.wav"); 

            }
            if (Modernizr.audio.mp3) {
                jQuery("#audiofile").val("sound/mario_coin.mp3");

            }
        }
        else {
          jQuery("#HTML5Audio").hide();
          jQuery("#OldSound").html('<embed src="sound/smw_save_menu.wav" autostart=false width=1 height=1 id="LegacySound" enablejavascript="true" >');

        }

I'm thinking the HTML that goes into your #OldSound container needs to be closer to something like this:

var flashAudioHTML =
'<object data="sound/smw_save_menu.wav"  width="1" height="1" other_attrs...>' +
    '<embed src="sound/smw_save_menu.wav" width="1" height="1" other_attrs...>' +
'</object>';
jQuery("#OldSound").html( flashAudioHTML );
