You will need the following:

	The HTML Code to put them on your page.
	Instructions for your ISP so they can set the appropriate MIME type for midi files on their server. Most will have done this by now but some will not have.
	Sources for midi files. Hymns to download
	Some basic hints on configuring things.

The HTML Code You Will Need
Insert the following code into your page:

<EMBED SRC="yourhymn.mid" WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="55" 
AUTOSTART="TRUE" HIDDEN="FALSE" VOLUME="80"> </EMBED>

What this code means...

	embed src - tells your web browser where to find the file.
	width and height - are the midi-player graphic dimensions.
	autostart equals true - use this if you want the hymn to load automatically. If not, omit it. If you omit it you will have to set up the hymn as a link that visitors click on.
	Hidden equals false - this makes the Netscape midi-player graphic appear so your guests can have the option of stopping the song.  Make it true if you like to omit graphic.
	Volume equals 80 - this just tells the browser how loud to play it. "80" seems to be the recommended standard by everyone.

How To Use This Code

	Use the edit menu on Netscape to cut and paste the HTML code above. You can achieve the same thing by saving this file now and viewing it later.
	Cut and paste the HTML code to the top of your Web page. I put it just underneath the 'body' element.
	Change "yourhymn.mid" to the name of the midi file you are using. Notice the filename is enclosed in quotation marks and ends in .mid NOT .midi !
	Put the midi files you want to use in the same directory as your web pages.
	It should work straight off. If it doesn't your ISP may not have configured their computer to handle midi files yet. Its only a small job for them so e-mail them the instructions below with a very polite request.

Instructions For Your ISP

1. Use bright music that really welcomes people to your page.
2. Use recognizable and familiar tunes.
3. Have only one midi file per page.
4. Surprise people with it! Don't advertise it as your "BIG FEATURE."  Make your content the big feature and the MIDI hymn a really nice "value added extra". It will keep them coming back.
5. Change your tune! Occasionally change the tune you use unless its absolutely totally your own personal anthem. A new tune each other week will keep your page sounding fresh to visitors.
6. A minute or two of music is enough for most people. Music that goes on for a long while, especially if the tune is annoyingly repetitive (like ice-cream vans) will turn people away from your site.
7. You want people to get to your content quickly, not to be sidetracked by music. Therefore it is probably better to have the music as a background feature (loading automatically) and get their "clicking finger" going toward your content.
