can't queue two audio tags

Time:11-12

i am trying to play two sounds so the first one is played, then the second one.

i tried to search online, but it didn't help since the question isn't common and/or it is hard to phrase it both informative and short.

i did this, but of of course this didn't help and it played the two audio files at the same time.

<audio autoplay src="sound_1.mp3">
<audio autoplay src="sound_2.mp3">

Edit: it would be very useful if instead of making a queue, you silence the second audio until the first one is finished. but a normal queue works too.

CodePudding user response:

There is an ended event, by using that you can play the next audio.

const audio_1 = document.getElementById("audio1");
audio_1.play();
audio_1.onended = function() {
  const audio_2 = document.getElementById("audio2");
  audio_2.play();
};
<audio id='audio1' src='sound1.mp3'>
<audio id='audio2' src='sound2.mp3'>
