Can I use a form selection as a variable on the same page? I want to use the selection to pick an audio. Not working.

 

 

 

<form><select name="sermon"> <option value="Runbeach.mp3">Sunday, July 26, 2015 </option> <option value="Bearcreek Blues.mp3">Sunday, July 27, 2015 </option> <option value="Sow 'em On The Mountain.mp3">Sunday, July 28, 2015 </option></select></form> <audio controls> <source src=sermon type="audio/mpeg"> Your browser does not support the audio element.</audio>

You can use Javascript to put an event handler on that select element to run a function that gets the value they selected and sets it as the src for the audio source element. The src attribute of the audio source element can't be the name of another element on the page, that doesn't do anything. The src attribute is the URL of a file.
