    Default MP3 samples play at same time on some web browsers

    Hi,

    I've been putting together some podcast broadcasts for the History faculty and they work really well on my PC at school and laptop at home and the History teacher has tested them and says they work well on her PC.

    However, some children have been saying that ALL the MP3's play at the same time when they click on the first one and all they hear is them all playing together.

    I've just used ordinary HTML on this but think it may be something to do with whatever browser they're using. Any body got any ideas how to improve this?

    There are two possible methods:

    1, Use the standard MP3 player installed in our Intranet software, the down side to that is that it's clunky and ugly.

    2, Make a Flash MP3 player, (I have one from a previous assignment) and modify that, but that's a time consuming task.

    Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated, here's the code:

    Please use the forum's bbcode tags and indent your code to make it more readable:

    for php code............[php] <?php /* code goes here */ ?> [/php]
    for html...............[html] <!-- markup goes here -->.....[/html]
    for js/css/other.......[code] code goes here................[/code]

    results in:
    PHP Code:
     <?php /* code goes here */ ?>
    HTML Code:
     <!-- markup goes here -->
    Code:
     code goes here


    autostart (which is nonstandard, though I think all browsers recognize it anyway; autoplay is the "correct" attribute) is a boolean attribute— it's either there, or it's not.
    HTML Code:
    <video autoplay=true>   <!--  autoplay!  -->
    <video autoplay>        <!--  autoplay!  -->
    <video autoplay=false>  <!--  autoplay!  -->
    <video>                 <!-- no autoplay -->
    Odd, but that is how it is supposed to be. The browsers that are playing all of them at once are actually doing the right thing.
