A Web Audio Library Designed For Games - jWebAudio

Basic Usage:

Include the latest jQuery javascript library and jWebAudio script on your web page.

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../build/jquery.jWebAudio.js"></script>

Create a container for the plugin.

<div id="demo"></div>

The javascript.

$(document).ready(function() {
    /* Create sound with url.
     * Note that sound is not actually loaded yet. So it is 
     * recommended that you create all sounds that will be used
     * later and load them when necessary. If the sound is not
     * loaded when play, it will automatically load.
     *
     * Each element div can contain at most one sound.
     * You may set those divs to be invisible if you wish.
     */
    $('#div1').jWebAudio('addSoundSource', {
        'url': 'resource/a.ogg',
        'preLoad': true,
        'callback': function() {
            $('#div1').jWebAudio('play');
        }
    });
    /* Which has the same effect as the following. */
    /*
    $('#div1').jWebAudio('addSoundSource', {
        'url': 'resource/a.ogg'
    });
    $('#div1').jWebAudio('load', function() {
        $('#div1').jWebAudio('play');
    });
    */
    /* jWebAudio maintains chainability as jQuery does.
     * So you may call the above functions in this way
     * and will get all the same results.
     *
     * $('#div1').jWebAudio('addSoundSource', {
     *     'url': 'resource/a.ogg'
     * }).jWebAudio('load', function() {
     *     $('#div1').jWebAudio('play');
     * });
     */
});
