Free SWF MP3 Player
Wednesday, June 17th, 2009Google’s taking over the world, we all know that. They are producing some cool tools along the way, here is one we like.
The Code:
<object width=”400″ height=”28″ data=”http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3247397568-audio-player.swf?audioUrl=MP3_FILE_URL” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash”>
<param name=”bgcolor” value=”#ffffff” />
<param name=”flashvars” value=”playerMode=embedded” />
<param name=”src” value=”http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3247397568-audio-player.swf?audioUrl=MP3_FILE_URL” />
<param name=”wmode” value=”window” />
<param name=”quality” value=”best” />
</object>
The Implementation:
- Step 1: copy the code above
- Step 2: paste this into the HTML of your page
- Step 3: Update the “MP3_FILE_URL” with a relative or absolute path to your MP3 file
- Step 4: oh wait, there is no step 4
*NOTE: Some bloggers have mentioned that this code won’t work in IE if you have .MP3 in the file name, I haven’t found this to be correct. This should work on all browsers, new and old.
