HTML5 Audio iPAD, Can't play the audio file?

Question

I have a little problem

I am trying to play audio files in webView with html5 on ipad simulator, I have code like this:

<audio controls="controls" format="mp3 ogg">
      <source src="test.ogg" />
       <source src="test.mp3" />
</audio>

But I always got "can't play audio file" on the black control panel: /

Someone like an idea why?

Of course, my test.mp3 and test.ogg are added to my xcode project and are in the same directory

thank

The format attribute in audio makes no sense. You must use the type attribute in the source tag.

See an example:

<source src="test.ogg" type="audio/ogg" />
<source src="test.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" />

This works on ipad.
