    <p>I'm attempting to embed an HTML5 audio element pointing to MP3 or OGG data served by a PHP file . When I view the page in Safari, the controls appear, but the UI says "Live Broadcast." When I click play, the audio starts as expected. Once it ends, however, I can't start it playing again by clicking play. Even using the JS API on the audio element and setting currentTime to 0 fails with an index error exception.</p> <p>I suspected the headers from the PHP script were the problem, particularly missing a content length. But that's not the case. The response headers include a proper Content- Length to indicate the audio has finite size. Furthermore, everything works as expected in Firefox 3.5+. I can click play on the audio element multiple times to hear the sound replay.</p> <p>If I remove the PHP script from the equation and serve up a static copy of the MP3 file, everything works fine in Safari.</p> <p>Does this mean Safari is treating audio src URLs with query parameters differently than URLs that don't have them? Anyone have any luck getting this to work?</p> <p>My simple example page is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt;&lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;audio controls autobuffer&gt; &lt;source src="say.php?text=this%20is%20a%20test&amp;format=.ogg" /&gt; &lt;source src="say.php?text=this%20is%20a%20test&amp;format=.mp3" /&gt; &lt;/audio&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>HTTP Headers from PHP script:</p> <pre><code>HTTP/1.x 200 OK Date: Sun, 03 Jan 2010 15:39:34 GMT Server: Apache X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.10 Content-Length: 8993 Keep-Alive: timeout=2, max=98 Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: audio/mpeg </code></pre> <p>HTTP Headers from direct file access:</p> <pre><code>HTTP/1.x 200 OK Date: Sun, 03 Jan 2010 20:06:59 GMT Server: Apache Last-Modified: Sun, 03 Jan 2010 03:20:02 GMT Etag: "a404b-c3f-47c3a14937c80" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 8993 Keep-Alive: timeout=2, max=100 Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: audio/mpeg </code></pre> <p>I tried hard-coding the Accept-Ranges header into the script too, but no luck.</p>

    1. COI'm not sure if you you get notified about edits, but I've edited my answer to include a test case that works for me, and seems to match what you're doing. Can you check if my test case works for you as well?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
