playing a WAV file on iOS Safari

Question

I\'m struggling to get a WAV file to play on a HTML page as either an HTML5 audio tag or via a regular downloadable link in mobile Safari (iPad/iPhone):

Answer 1

Through a run of trial and error I found that you need a content-range header for it to work. Here's an example of my headers that allows a wav file to play in Safari for iOS:

Content-Range: bytes XX-XX/XX
Content-Type: audio/wav 
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="whatever.WAV" 
Content-Length: XX    

Hope this helps!
