The HTMLAudioElement interface provides access to the properties of <audio> elements, as well as methods to manipulate them. It derives from the HTMLMediaElement interface.

Properties

No specific properties; inherits properties from its parent, HTMLMediaElement, and from HTMLElement.

Methods

Inherits methods from its parent, HTMLMediaElement, and from HTMLElement.

Constructor

Syntax

mySound = new Audio([URLString]);

Description

Constructor for audio elements. The preload property of the returned object is set to auto and the src property is set to the argument value. The browser begins asynchronously selecting the resource before returning the object.

Note: An Audio element constructed with new Audio() won't be garbage collected as long as playback is in progress. It will continue playing and be audible until pause() is called or playback finishes.

Parameters

URLString (expected type: DOMString; optional)
The src property of the constructed HTMLAudioElement.

Regular methods

Name & Arguments Return Description
mozCurrentSampleOffset() unsigned long long Indicates the current offset of the audio stream that was created by a call to mozWriteAudio(). This offset is specified as the number of samples since the beginning of the stream.

mozSetup(in PRUint32 channels, in PRUint32 rate)

void Sets up the audio stream for writing. You specify as parameters the number of channels (1 for mono or 2 for stereo), then the sampling rate (44100 for 44.1kHz, for example).
mozWriteAudio(in jsval data) unsigned long Writes audio into the stream at the current offset. Returns the number of bytes actually written to the stream.

Examples

Basic usage

You can create your HTMLAudioElement entirely with JavaScript:

var horn = new Audio('car_horn.wav');
horn.play();

Some of the more commonly used properties of the audio element includes src, currentTime, duration, paused, muted and volume. This snippet copies the audio file's duration to a variable:

var horn = new Audio('car_horn.wav');
horn.addEventListener('loadeddata', () => {
  let duration = horn.duration;
  // The duration variable now holds the duration (in seconds) of the audio clip 
})
