(2)Image mode
When an image on the wordpress page or post is clicked, specified music begins playing.

Playing slideshow and music. Timings of changing images are specified in an timetable.

I tested this plugin with IE8,Chrome,Firefox,Opera,Safari(WindowsXP), IE9(Windows7), iPod touch(iOS 4.3.5), and Android(2.3, emulator).

This audio player has accessibility features.

• Text browser users can download audio file.
• Screen reader users can manipulate the player by selecting play button, stop button, etc.

You can enable or disable these feature in the admin page. I tested them with Microsoft Narrator, JAWS(demo version), Focus Talk(demo version) , ALTAIR and NVDA.

Install the plugin like usual ones. Then activate it.
