Ugh. I took it out cuz it was messy. Would still like to know how to put background music into a post.
THanks
If you are looking to have background music play automatically, I might be able to help. I was looking for the same answer and stumbled upon your post. After some research, I learned how to do it.
After you have uploaded your music, go to your HTML editor, and enter the following:
<bgsound src=”yourmusicfile.mp3″ loop=”infinite”>
Enter the url for the location of your music file in place of the text “yourmusicfile.mp3”
This inlcuded the music without any type of player or viewer control, and will loop it continuosly.
If you want to give the viewer a control box, use this code:
<embed src=”yourmusicfile.mpc” autostart=”true” loop=”true”
width=”2″ height=”0″>
</embed>
I don’t like the look of this so much, and have tried playing with the size of the box, but no luck.

I am no programmer, but have been trying to learn some basic stuff. Hope this helps!
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! The problem is I need some clarification. I’m a newbie, so please bear with me. I understand the code. What I don’t understand is where to put it–i.e. the “HTML editor.” I don’t know where is the HTML editor. I think it’s under the “Appearance” tab? From there, I have choices–“Header,” “Main Index Template,” “Page Index” etc. Please let me know where the code goes. Last, I don’t know where to “upload music” to–my computer or WP? When I try to upload it to WP using the audio uploader I get a message saying I’m not allowed to do this. I really really would appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance.
BTW, I visited lonestarlady53’s site and it works, so that’s what I’m hoping will happen on mine.
