html5 audio tag:

Everything works fine , if javascript has turned on. If i turn javascript off , the player just disappears. If the attribute of the audio tag "autoplay" is placed, you can listen the audio, but there is not any controls and not any player on the screen - it is just blank.

The same problem appears with html5 video tag.
