I found that just adding a bogus bit of code to the audio file specification, which I found on another site, makes the iframe code work for all browsers Mac and PC. I tested Firefox Mac, Safari Mac, IE 7 (Win), and Firefox Win.

Example (change { } for angle brackets):

{iframe style=”border: 1px solid rgb(170, 170, 170); width:400px; height: 29px;” id=”musicPlayer” src=”http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3247397568-audio-player.swf?audioUrl=[MP3 File Path Here]&play=true”}{/iframe}

It works great on my Blogger site.

Note: I increased the height from 27px to 29px. This adds an unwanted black line across the top in Firefox and Safari, but improves the display in IE, where at 27px the top edge was cut off making it difficult to read the time stamps. Is there a way to get that line across the top to display in a color other than black?

Note 2: “embed” will work in some browsers as an alternative to “iframe,” but I couldn’t get “embed” to work in all browsers with all audio file paths. The “iframe” code above is the only one that worked every time.

I would also like it to autoplay. Anyone found a solution for that yet?

about the autostart.. I actually have a legitimate reason to autostart a file… In my page I have alink that opens a popup window for a media file.. when the popup window opens I want to autostart the media. One of the few times I can agree with autostart.

Here’s a great fix: Don’t use the iframe tag. Just embed the object like this:
