Playing A Random Music File

This page demonstrates the use of the random music script. Every time you view this page, a different music file will play.

How To Use

  1. Create a directory called midis for midi files.
  2. They must end in .mid
    Put nothing else in this directory,
  3. Create a directory called mods for mod files
  4. They must end in .mod, .stm, or .xm(lowercase)
    Put nothing else in this directory.

To use this in E-mail, just embed the following MUSIC file link in your email:

<embed src="http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/cgi-bin/random-music.cgi" width="0" height="0" autostart="true" loop="true"> <noembed><bgsound src="http://YOURDOMAIN.COM/cgi-bin/random-music.cgi" loop="true"> </noembed></embed>
Remember it is random.....and plays both directories...
so you may hear more than one of one kind or another....
If you want more mods to play;have 2 in the midis directory
and 20 in the mods directory and vice versa.

Now, IF you want the music to play on a website HTML file: insert following code into your html file:

<embed src="/cgi-bin/random-music.cgi" width="0" height="0" autostart="true" loop="true"> <noembed><bgsound src="/cgi-bin/random-music.cgi" loop="true"> </noembed></embed>

MSNTV NOT AT ARBOR HOSTING:

You should have in your main directory

a directory of midis.....called midis
a directory of mods...called mods
and the cgi script for the music player
Then this in your sigbox
