Answer 1

If you intend to make this through a browser, you can't. JavaScript doesn't have the permission to do any of those actions, since it would be a big security hole. You might be able to access the recorder through an embedded object, but I have never tried this, so I don't know for sure.

Answer 2

I am making an extension of Firefox that uses only javascript. I am able to open sound recorder but not able to start/stop recording and the window is displaying. this is the main problem

Answer 3

Answer 4

Expanding on what Machine said, why not try Flash, I'm sure that has the ability to use recorder.
