Hi @BoiledFlea, can you try getting rid of the source tag and replace $("#src")... with $("#audio")...?

Hi @BoiledFlea
The problem seems to be that the add event listener line can’t run until the document is fully loaded. Since you have jquery, you can do this:

$(document).ready(function(){
})

and put the

document.getElementById("upload").addEventListener("change", handleFiles, false);

line in that function!

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
If it did, press the ‘Solution’ button. Looks like @Pufferfish101007’s solution isn’t necessary. Correct me if I am wrong.

I think that is correct :slight_smile: I was even doing this earlier and I missed it :laughing:
Another option is to place the script tag right at the bottom of the page.
