@Eye_for_VideoJun 02.2009 — Does your page validate? If not, clean it up and then go forward.

My suggestion, use a Flash player and swfobject (Google for details) to place it on your page. Then you can add some alt content to describe your background music for robots and spiders.

@evan5authorJun 02.2009 — no whenever I try to validate my script, i dont understand what i have to do. Those validators confuse the hell out of me. Why would i need flash related things since all I need a music file in the background. I just can't get it to work with Google Chrome

@DelanJun 02.2009 — Embed never validates with the W3C because it is a rubbish tag.

The advice is right, get a flash-based media player to put on your site, then load the file into that. Flash will handle it all, and it'll work brilliantly on all browsers.

Success!
