style display:none in initializer prevents playback in Firefox

[aguywithanidea]

It has been reported that in Firefox browsers, because the init function sets the display style to none (see line 83), playback will never be enabled because the ready event will never be received.

Commenting out display: none line for me actually triggers the Player.playerReady() function.

In addition, in Firefox, there is an exception
TypeError
"Argument 2 of EventTarget.addEventListener is not an object."
"Player.playerReady@http:https://api.napster.com/v1.1/player/player.js:1:3446playerReady@http:https://api.napster.com/v1.1/player/player.js:1:24@http:https://api.napster.com/v1.1/player/index.html?apikey=MTM2Zjc1OWMtZjIyYS00NjlkLTljYzItMTA2NDEyNDgyZTAy:0:22"

Seems to be working now after I restarted Firefox.

Thanks for the feedback @mkommar. We're in progress of updating the SDK to remove the dependency on Flash for track playback (HTML5 Audio - yeah baby!)

We will fix this bug in the example app when we make the player update.

@aguywithanidea - Any idea ETA on when the HTML5 audio version will be released?

[aguywithanidea]

We're currently hoping to have this released in early August. We will keep you posted :)

Any update, I'm eagerly awaiting for html 5 support as well!

Any updates on the html5 release? Anxiously awaiting! Maybe can you offer an early beta we can start working with?
