Play sound in website in both computer and other devices

I'd really love to know how to make a div play sound in an onclick event for the computer and other devices. And if there is a way to change an already existing piano script to work on other devices
The already existing code: jsfiddle.net/Nf68y

You can use a jQuery library like jPlayer for cross browser/device audio playback: http://jplayer.org/
But you might also just want to look in the html5 audio element, to see what that is all about :)

It is possible to record sound with HTML5 and Javascript?

I wonder if it is possible to record and play sounds with HTML5. In that way it will work in all main plataforms, like mobiles and pc's.
I found this old post Is it possible to record sound with HTML5? but maybe now it is posible.

Javascript Youtube mp4 download to ios

I searched for many solutions to play Youtube videos on iOS.
At the moment i just use a webview to show only the player and then press the play button (only embed the video in the webview).
But I know there is a javascript solution to get an mp4 link for the youtube video.
This is the javascript:
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25105
The script searches for the video element and grabs all informations and finally make it possible to download the mp4.
Im not good in javascript, so i dont know if there is an possibility to write that code, that it just works with http://myurl.com/getvideo?id=VIDEOID .
I would try it myself, but i dont know if it is possible to grab all these informations the script uses without the player element.
Maybe you can help me ;)
(im using iOS 5 btw)
My english is not the best, so if u have problems to understand something, just ask.

you can check PSYouTubeExtractor that allows you to retrieve the mp4 version of a YouTube video, it is pretty easy to use.

Is there a way to embed an mp3 player in a website that isn't flash based (so that the website is iPhone OS compatible)

I did a lot of searching for what I thought would be a pretty common question, but I came up with nothing. If there is another thread with a similar topic, please let me know.
Basically, I'm looking for a way to have an .mp3 file play in a website without relying on a flash-based player. I've searched w3 schools and every forum I can think of, but every media player I've found so far has been some sort of proprietary flash player.
Doesn't HTML support some sort of native player? I've found some that rely on Windows Media Player which is close, but I want the player to work on an iPhone and something tells me WMP won't get that done...
PS, as I'm thinking more about this this idea just popped into my head: a javascipt player and inside the <noscript> tag, put a flash player? I'm running a music blog (# http://www.freshoncampus.com) so the less code per post, the better...

Yes you can, with HTML 5.
This is a pretty good explanation of how you might go about doing this.
The caveat is that HTML5 support is not universal, but iOS devices (iphone) have a good start with supporting HTML5.
Edited to add:
From the question, it's hard to discern if you're looking for a way to play multiple mp3's with a nice gui interface, or just use audio as a background.
For the former, you will need to use Javascript to handle controls, and loading of the src element (I'd search for custom built javascript or jquery plugins to handle this).
For the latter, my solution above will work.
Also, background music in a webpage is highly annoying to most users, so caveat emptor.

You could go with something like http://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/
which should autodetect the best option to play the sound.

jplayer? Not sure about MP3/OGG thing though...

First, HTML5's “audio” tag.
Second, you can use “embed” tag — it will play with whatever browser plugin is installed (not just WMP).
Not sure what would work in iPhone, though.
(and I might be wrong about exact tag names)

Is there any way to control EMBED Code Videos?

Is there any way to control YouTube EMBED CODE. For example I am using YouTube embed code in my site. Is there any way to control the video like forward, backward, stop etc. with my own buttons.
Is this possible?
Any help will be appreciated.. Thanks in Advance.

YouTube has a JavaScript and Flash API that you can use to build your own player or control the player programmatically.
The documentation is here: http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/overview.html
There are several examples in the documentation for controlling your own "chromeless" player. This is probably what you want to use if you want your own buttons.

All of the major browser-embedded video player types have ways to do this, but the method is different for all of them.
YouTube uses a Flash player, which poses a special problem: Flash video players have no ability to handle external JavaScript calls other than what is specifically added by the programmer that built the player. That is, if YouTube didn't build their player with support for external scriptability, you can't script it. This isn't a flag -- on/off -- it's that Flash makes you explicitly publish an external scripting API, and you have to know what the calls look like to make the player do what you want. This is unlike, say, QuickTime, Windows Media Player, or the new HTML 5 <video> tag, all of which have documented basic playback control like you're asking about.
It's probably possible to build your own FLV player (or buy one, like the popular JW Player, which does have a JavaScript API) and point it at the actual video file served by YouTube. I don't know if they try to obscure the video file URL, but once you find out what it is, you're golden.
