Question
I'm considering a web-version of some of our programs and considering HTML5 and Flash.
Anyone know if it's even possible to record audio with HTML5?
Solution
umm , it's pretty old news but i am just answering for posterity purposes . Google has proposed a Sound Capture API which is still under consideration under W3C HTML speech incubator group ( http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/htmlspeech/ ). Google also has posted a TTS example which works on Chrome beta http://slides.html5rocks.com/#speech-input all you have to do is
< input id = "speech-input-field" type="text" x-webkit-speech />
OTHER TIPS
A device element that would likely make this possible has been proposed.
It is very new and support among browsers will be somewhere between "weak" and "non-existent".
I don't think this feature is available yet, but its been rumored that HTML5 will be able to in the near future.
