I've got a my own website and I've put on my website a radio interview (MP3 file). On my website there is a tool which takes the MP3 file and plays it.
My file URL is "http://www.abc.com/invterview/July 9 interview.MP3"
Now, another website wants to play the same file and asks me to give te embed/share link.
Can someone help me how to accomplish this link?
I googled and found this webpage http://www.labnol.org/internet/design/html-embed-mp3-songs-podcasts-music-in-blogs-websites/2232/ ,which explains how to accomplish an EMBED, but I've never done this and I know Chrome, IE, FF, Safari have it's own instructions...
So can someone guide me how to accomplish an EMBED URL so it will work on all Browser? Do I need to use or what is the common use??????
if it was video file I could upload it to Youtube and send that link, but this is a MP3 file.
thanks

You could use HTML5, which has native support for playing audio.
<audio controls="controls" height="100" width="100">
<source src="song.mp3" type="audio/mp3" />
<source src="song.ogg" type="audio/ogg" />
<embed height="100" width="100" src="song.mp3" />
</audio>
If a browser does not support HTML5, the code above will fallback to the embed code.
Other than that, you could use the yahoo media player. It's not the coolest or best around, but it's simple and it gets the job done.
<a href="song.mp3">Play Song</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/js">
</script>
