I am new to HTML5 and I am exploring HTML5 features. There I came across audio tag.

I written code with it to play sound files.

I am having one problem with this tag. On button click, I want to change the sound file stopping the previous one.

I searched a lot but didn't find anything.
Please help me to stop the sound played by audio tag.

Here is my code;

  try

  {

       if(MyAudio != undefined)

       {

          MyAudio = null;

       }

       MyAudio = new Audio(filename);

       MyAudio.play();

  }

  catch(v)

  {

    //alert(v.message);

  }
