Introduction

dojox/mobile/Audio is a widget which plays audio. This widget wraps the HTML5 <audio> tag. If all sources cannot be played (typically, in desktop browsers that do not support <audio>), dojox/mobile/Audio automatically replaces <audio> with <embed>, such that the browser tries to play it with a suitable plug-in.
