HTML5 Web Speech API not working on the local server

I am trying to make this code work and don't know why it is not working on my local server as well as on my hosting server. I tried the same locally and it works.

( The curious thing is that there is a question here opposite to mine: HTML5 Web Speech API not working locally

Which makes it look even stranger. )

<html>
<head>
<title>Voice API</title>

</head>

<body>
<button 
onClick="func()">Click 
Me</button>
<script>
    function func()
    {
        alert('Hello');
        var recognition = 
new 
 webkitSpeechRecognition();

recognition.continuous = 
true;

recognition.interimResults = 
true;
        recognition.onresult 
= function(event) 
        { 
            alert(event. 
Hi[0][0].transcript); 
        }
        recognition.start();
    }
</script>
</body>

Welcome to stackoverflow, It seems you are trying to use the speech API of google chrome, Please add google chrome tag to your question. – Amir Fo Nov 29 '19 at 12:45

Does the browser prompt for permission to use the microphone? Is the site https? I'm pretty sure the API will only work over SSL – Brett Gregson Nov 29 '19 at 15:46
No, it doesn't. As to the site I am not sure about https and it really doesn't have SSL. But why then the code doesn't work on the local server? – poedgar Nov 30 '19 at 04:37
