Did you upload the new code?

I still see the old code with a bgsound in the head section and the missing quote in the type and an unnecessary trailing </noembed> and the end.

BGSOUND is IE code and doesn't work in Firefox.

For Firefox you need to use embed or object to make that MIDI file play.

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="wishin.mid" height="0" width="0" autostart="1">
<noembed><bgsound src="file.mp3" loop=-1></noembed>

I've edited your above posted code.

You can try that version to see if it works now.

I can't hear the music. I noted someone else said the html worked for other people but he couldn't hear the music. I will give you the link to test and see if you get the music.

I'm on Linux and can't test the code properly because I don't have a plugin that plays MIDI files embedded.

Sorry, there is a missing opening quote in the type attribute in the code. I've edited the code to correct that.

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="wishin.mid" height="0" width="0" autostart="1">

I also see that you didn't remove bgsound in the head section, so you now have two bgsound sections and that may cause problems with IE. You need to remove the bgsound code in the head section.

<bgsound src="wishin.mid" loop="-1">

<body bgproperties="fixed" background="fly00691.jpeg">
<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="wishin.mid" height="0" width="0" autostart="1">
