MP3 via Flash was created by Niklas1704
Hey guys,

I am trying to implement an MP3-File via Flash into one of my questions. I uploaded it into the resources of my survey and was able to choose it when designing the question. A box with a red "Flash" appears in the preview. When I want to try it, there is no flash interface, just a plain box where the flash player should be. I am using the flash feature in the question interface. What am I doing wrong?

Cheers

Hi,
I should recommend you use the <audio> tag:

Here with controls
Code:
<audio controls="">
<source src="https://www.example.com/path_to_file/filename.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" /> 
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>

Or controls and autoplay
Code:
<audio controls="" autoplay="">
<source src="https://www.example.com/path_to_file/filename.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" /> 
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>

Always consider the end of life of flash.

Hey Joffm,

I used your code and inserted the path from my Limesurvey resources. In the preview I could see and use the player as expected. When I press "save" the preview box clears and all what remains ist "Your browser does not support the audio element." Do I have to use another file hoster or is it a problem regarding the XSS-Filter?

Have you disabled the XSS filter in your security settings?

What do you see in source mode after saving the question?
Cheers,

Hey again,

I think I am not able to change setting of the XSS. I am not the admin of the tool for my university. I already asked them to change it.

What I can see in source mode is attached. I am using chrome btw.

Thank you so much!

That is the XSS filter removing your <audio> element. You will have to get that filter disabled.

Hey,

my Admin is not willing to disable that filter. The same problem occurs when I try to use Vimeo or Youtube. Is there any other way?

Cheers

I think it was fixed in last version : github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/commit/...893a4db617c62f2142dc

But not in 3.X : you can try to report it as an issue in 3.LTS

Hey,

another option would be to use Vimeo or Youtube. I tried that but after saving the question the Vimeo-Element disappeared. I was able to watch the video in the preview. Now I can see this in source mode:

<div class="videodetector"> </div>

<p> </p>



Thanks

Das dürfte alles das selbe Problem sein. Der XSS-Filter löscht solchen Code aus Sicherheitsgründen.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

Could not get the permission. My Admin did not care at all. I had to change to another tool. Easy Peasy, Lime Squeazy. Survey is finished.
But thanks, much appreciated!
