Custom Mute Button for Audio Embedding?

Question

I\'m trying to set up a custom mute button for the embed tag.

Answer 1

This is obviously an old question, but I had a similar issue... probably not the best solution, but I just placed the embed in a div and removed that div on the 'mutebutton' click, then hid the mute button:

mute



$("#mutebutton").click(function() {
            $(this).hide();
            var div = document.getElementById("soundDiv");
            div.parentNode.removeChild(div);
        });

I'm still a noob, so this may not work for you. But it did for me!
