Step 3 : Attaching a Midi file to your homepage
First, you should upload the MIDI file to your web site. Then you re-write HTML codes of your webpage. Add a command to play the MIDI file into HTML codes of the page that you want to attach background music to and upload it. You should write different commands for different web browsers. Netscape uses "EMBED" tag while Internet Explorer uses "BGSOUND" tag. If you use "EMBED" tag, it may be valid for both browsers. If you want to have the background music repeat, you should set TRUE for both "LOOP" and "REPEAT." If you want to be perfect, you can use JAVA script to distinguish which browser is in use.
