How do i put background music on my Webpage?

[Shawn]

Don't. Just don't.

[T_D]

No,I mean...Like to put music..but with a on and off button?could i do that?

[Chris]

Yes, you don't want to. It is annoying.

[Shawn]

Yes, I apologize. I should have been more specific: Don't. It's annoying.

I'm going to be more specific - If you do no one, and I mean no one, will visit your site again or buy things off it if they have sound on their computer when they visit - Background music is totally unprofessional.

[Mike]

I wouldn't say no one would buy anything off it, as Hostony has background music :)

But for a small site, it's not a good idea to put background music on.

[incka]

I meant midi background music, background music in flash is ok (Shawn Weeks - Don't argue as the company you work for's site has flash background music)

[T_D]

ok thank's alot people:)but i just want a on and off button...so people can turn the music on and off if they want the music or not..please?

<embed src="midi.mid" type="Windows Media" status="on"> Or something like that.

[T_D]

Why, why did you tell him how. Argh. I never visit a page with "music" twice. I mean, flash sounds are one thing, but archiac midi music, you've got to be kidding me.

I even get annoyed by just flash sounds, let alone midi music. :)

Not to mention the extra loading time for your visitors and the extra bandwith cost for you.

It is good to know how though, sinse you could have a page that needs it (look how many searches 'midis' gets a day...)
